Was is fun or as stereotyped as it sounded? I missed it.

It isn't insulting, if you actually watch it - unless they've changed the format.

I watched the US version last year and am watching it this year and it isn't the show you'd expect it to be from the title.

That's what they said on Richard & Judy, gemmzie.

Everything is tongue-in-cheek and taken in good spirit (actually, one of the girls has a university degree), and It's a whole load of Xmas party-type fun.

I missed the very first part of this show but I enjoyed what I did see.
It's a crap title and if people only see that and the promos then no wonder the perception is 'reality rubbish'. IMO you can only get a proper idea of what the show is about from actually watching it. Wink

It's the other way round in my house, I educated my parents in what to watch.

What a lovely show this is turning out to be. The blossoming romance between Ben and (is it Melissa?) -- aaaaahhh. I'm surprised it's been relegated to E4 rather than the main channel. Probably why there's a lack of comments? I'm totally hooked on it!

Another *excellent* show on Five last night: 'Selling Yourself'. I thought the 'sweaty' guy would get the job. Next week's looks good.

I enjoyed that show too! I was so pleased she got the job.
Interesting programme, if a little cringeworthy due to the contestants! Big Grin

David Mitchell is the narrator. It is great for that reason alone. I've seen one ep. I don't like the Essex girl who says she can't be friends with ugly people cos it would put a downer on things. Snooty little bitch.

Great last night -- Ha-ha-ha, love it! The geeks scrubbed up really well didn't they. Shame Ben has lost his lady, but I didn't think she was too serious about him?!
