First Cut: The Hunt For Britain's Tightest Person

It's a 2 part prog on Channel 4 on Friday 9th January at 7.35pm and the blurb says "Claire Braden meets extreme money-savers, including a woman who lives in a castle but shops in budget supermarkets." (She also wears 4 jumpers instead of turning on the heating and cuts dishwasher tablets in half too!)
It sounds good but the 1st prog's only on for 25 mins! Still, we can always watch it and then switch over on to ITV1 and watch the 2nd part of Jonathan Maitlands very interesting Tonight: Living Without Money prog too!

She sounds like a good OS'er to me. Besides, in the current economic situation, can you imagine the bill for heating her castle? :eek: :rotfl:Take the first step.
Even if you cannot see the whole staircase,
Just take the first step.

LL, I felt quite sorry for the unmarried woman who walked round Mr T's asking for discounts, she seemed lonely but then I wonder - was the prog edited to make me think this??0

Sorry to double post. I did do a search with exact words in title and nothing came up but I'm always unlucky with the search on here.
I would have missed it myself, DH saw it and started taking the mickey out of me because I'm always talking about MSE!
