Wasn't there supposed to be something on GMTV this morning? I had the program on but didn't see anything, I couldn't help being curious.

The people who go on these 'talk ' shows make the asylum in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' look like a nice place.

But they are fantastic if you are feeling down. You watch and think that no matter HOW bad your life may be at least you havn't had to stoop to plastering your problems all over television.

I suppose that's true. Some of the people on these shows are so pathetic that I stopped watching them a long time ago. I think the only reality type/problem show I watch is 'How clean is your House' I love it when Kim and Aggie tell the people whos houses they're cleaning what dirty beggars they are....

Come on - everyone secretly loves these programs cos we're all nosey and like to compare our own lives with others. And now the TV has replaced local community and gossips over the garden fence - these programs were destined to happen!!!

Well folks....just had to search the forum to see if anyone had written about the show.
If you have read the burnleyweb forum on this subject you will see that the show was edited badly in becky's favour,but that is what makes a tv show.
Some of it was true i grant you but 75% was bulls*it.
They planted some of the things when she went into the house on the first day but that is another story.
Anyway hope you enjoyed the show.

Jason
