Hi folks, Im going to be doign a thrifty Old style programme for an ITV1's Tonight programme for mid-september (8pm between the coronation streets). We're looking to film a few old stylers doing what they do best, giving old style tips and clever ways to hardcore cut costs.

I would love regular old stylers from here to make a real impact, get your white vinegar out, make your cosmetics and prove your Britain's savviest thrift hounds.

There's a chance one may even go in with me to do a makeover on a family... but come and have a bit of fun filming and be on the telly.

If you're interested then please email [EMAIL="katie.godfrey@ITV.com"]katie.godfrey@ITV.com[/EMAIL] telling her you want to give some old style tips and a few details about yourself as well as a contact phone number.

Don't worry you dont need to be a TV presenter to do it - the production team will make it easy, just know your stuff and care about old style.

Martin :)

Thanks in advance

PS a few occassional bumps so no one misses this would be great (as people will be emailing rather than responding inthe forum)

    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    Really pleased to hear that OS is getting an airing - I'm sorry I'm not up to tv, but I'll be rooting for whoever volunteers! :T

    And if you are applying why not let other olde stylers here know :) and Old stylers if you think someone would be good why not pm them and give a bit of encouragement

    (Ps those who did thrifty tips in IPTW are more than welcome too)

    Bumped :D

    We were discussing this on the Econ Gastron thread about how we should have our own programme. Eek not brave enough to appear on national TV (and don't think I am half a thrifty as some on here). A case of be careful what you wish for ;)

    I've just looked at the Tv, the programme isn't on here.
    Airline is about to start.
