We're talking reality TV on this week's episode – or, rather, Beatrice is quizzing Rosemary on what exactly it is that she enjoys about Love Island, The Bachelorette and true trash TV like Too Hot to Handle. Is it voyeurism? Is it the potential for ogling beautiful people in the sun? Or does she enjoy watching other humans suffer? Or could it be (d) all of the above?!

Let us know your thoughts about the behemoth that is reality TV – and your favourite memories of indulging in the genre, from the earliest days of The Real World and everyone's favourite scripted reality TV family, Laguna Beach / The Hills / The City to modern wonders like Love is Blind and Sexy Beasts.

And as always, let us know if there are any subjects – taboo or otherwise – that you'd like us to cover!
