Who, in their right mind, would want to be any part of this TV programme which is the corniest, cringeworthy manifestation of vulgarity that I have ever seen on TV. I don't watch TV often - maybe this is the norm nowadays.

David Frost and Lloyd Grossman did have irritating quirks but last night's new version of Through the Keyhole became unwatchable after a very short time.

I survived the garish intro, thinking 'they have used the Jeremy Kyle audience for this one' - normal people couldn't get so enthusiastic about the ostentatious set with gaudy lighting effects. Then the 'presenter' appeared - who is he anyway? - never heard of him ! - now wish I hadn't. I stuck with it until the 'reveal' of the first home owner - another nonentity I have never heard of.

Saturday night TV sucks - come back Noel Edmunds House Party - that was mundane but didn't induce nausea like this one did.
