ditchman Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 I dont know what bosses are thinking when they "INVENT" TV programmes.....i cant remember the name of this one , but i will describe it.... woman (like and older version of nicola spungeon)......goes into peoples houses and gets them to do a dump in a tuperware box......then all the family bring down the dumps from the bathroom .....she then puts on plastic gloves and pokes the poo and then holds the box up and sniffs it...... the idea is she tells them whats going on in their bottom and the diet that they should change to....to manufacture a good stiff one (2 shorts and a curley) Tell me what goes on in peoples brains when they turn up at TV centre and say "ive got a really great idea for a TV programme"......then describes it at a board meeting.... anyone remember what the programme was called ?

DanBettin Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 This was Gillian McKieth. Maybe 'You Are What You Eat'? Totally agree, nightmare TV. I don't bother with TV, full of **** - quite literally, sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loriusgarrulus Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 Got a brilliant way of avoiding naff TV programmes. Don't turn the TV on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 There is some dross out there admittedly......I'm just amazed people actually watch it. My kids were fascinated about that programme some years ago where people would go into that 'GP's' booth somewhere in a town and show doc's what odd and scary ailments that had been bothering them for years. One old dear had something wrong with her nether regions. She'd never bothered her local doc with it but was more than willing to get her 80 year old flange out and put it on nationwide display on tv!? Eh? Whats that all about?! Thankfully it wasn't tea time, thats all I can say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long since exposed as a scam artist with completely bogus qualifications.

walshie Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) It never ceases to amaze me how low people will go to get on the telly. Trying to get the whole family to dump in a box would be a bit challenging in this house. I rarely watch telly now as it's all police in cars, police not in cars, police with cameras, police on motorways, "celebs" baking cakes, "celebs" cooking or something to do with Alaska.

Howling Hound Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 Many years ago a good mate of mine who was a builder suddenly found out he was on fruit smoothies for breakfast. It appears his good lady had read a book called 'you are what you eat' by this woman. his wife explained this new diet that he found himself on was for his own good. Not wishing to upset his wife by telling her where to stick the diet he asked to read the book. He was fasenated to read that the diet would improve his sexual libido. Unfortunately his went though the roof. He was back on bacon sandwiches within a week and the book was in the bin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
