I don't know whether this 'televisual delight' has made it out your way yet (in which a bunch of so-called celebs are shut in a house and the public gradually vote them out)...what some people do for publicity!
Shame this will be your last AC quiz...they've been very enjoyable! :)

Well, in that case, "Bread" :)
But honestly, I put Telly ahead of them because I thought his had been a bigger hit (albeit a sort of novelty one...?)

Bread did it originally, and they had the bigger hit here in the U.S. I have never heard Telly's version, and honestly I think it's probably better left that way! ;)
