Over the last few weeks, a documentary crew from BBC1 North West have been popping in to film a behind the scenes look at what I do and my working life.
This was shown last Fri (29/2/08) on BBC1 Inside Out North West; the production team behind it offered to do a link so all MoneySavers could watch it if they wanted.
Like any documentary, the fact it's there doesn't mean I agree with all of it, or would've interpreted it in the same way. It's fascinating to see someone else's take on my life and work yet I'll leave you to work out which bits I enjoyed and which made me hide my head under the pillow.

Ah my default for watching this one was Realplayer; this meant that with one click, I could watch in full screen mode,(Albeit somewhat hazy ).
For It Pays to Watch and other UTube images, is there a similar way of blowing up the image to full screen?

Hi Harry,
You can watch all You tube videos full screen by clicking the last button just below the viewing screen, above and to the right of where it says Flag.
Hope this helps

If you have a look on the IPTW website http://www.itpaystowatch.co.uk/shows/ you can view IPTW More which is hosted on YouTube and are really interesting to watch.

Pls be nice to all MoneySavers. There's no such thing as a stupid question, and even if you disagree courtesy helps. Take care over copyright. Use excerpts and links rather than copying long text. This site asserts copyright on all comments posted on the board.
