The Jade Goody reality show continues to play out to its inevitable end whilst the masses gawp. It seems that human nature's sickening fascination can never be satisfied.
Now, a new twist has emerged since Goody announced that she would be marrying her boyfriend Jack Tweed at a country hotel in Essex. The Big Brother star has only a week to organise the wedding and is resolute that she will walk down the aisle. This will all only add further ammunition and tragedy to the story.
Yet, despite the criticism surrounding Goody and her actions you cannot help but feel sorry for her. To have her final weeks of life played out in the press as entertainment is somewhat unsavoury, whether she is encourgaing the attention or not.
The only good thing that I can see emerging from it all is that demand for cervical smear tests have already risen dramatically. The Guardian reported yesterday that the University Hospital Lewisham, south east London, has carried out 21% more tests since Goody was diagnosed with cancer. Lets hope that this effect will continue.
