I can't understand a word of what the young champagne crowd of The Only Way is Essex on BBC Entertainment (DStv 120) on Wednesdays at 21:55 are actually saying - but from vajazzeling to all the "oh Shaa ups" the British reality show is delightfully fresh.
The blue-eyed orange cuties are like the Teletubbies: wide-eyed, attracted to sparkly things, like to run around, glows in the dark and comes in multi-coloured shapes and sizes one for each type.
Trying to follow the dialogue of The Only Way is Essex is much like watching a silent movie - because there's not really a lot of words (one can comprehensively make out) you're mostly left to deduce what is happening by following the actions.
Part of the fun is pausing playback of The Only Way is Essex, rewinding the PVR and trying to make out syllables and sentences of what the reality stars are unable to clearly enunciate.
"Oh, Shaa Up!"
