On Monday someone kindly put the online BBC link to the programme on here and I would be really grateful if someone could put the online link on here for todays programme, I have been to the BBC site but my pc won't let me watch it through that site yet the link that was on here for Monday's programme works fine. Been out and forgot it was on!
Many thanks

    Hi milliejohn, thanks but for some reason your link to the BBC website won't allow me to watch the video of the programme, yet the link honey put up does! I have no idea why that is, very confusing:confused:

    Oh well, thanks anyway, I saw the last one today (Friday) and Oprahs debt diet. What made me laugh was throughout the commercial breaks with Oprahs show, was the continuous stream of ads for debt consolidation companies! I love the idea of the last feature on her show of a couple who spent as little money as possible over a year and saved thousands. Not sure I could do it with children but if I was single I would give it some thought!

    I've just watched a couple of the 'Britain Streets of Debt' episodes today, and the one with the old woman in Blackpool who has been ruthlessly pursued for a missed payment and subsequent missed payments on a 2K loan that amounted to over 100K. Wow how much she had lost and I thought it interesting and very intriuging that she was candid throughout about the problems i.e. her struggle with making ends meet, the stroke that here husband suffered that was probably brought on byh the worry, the furniture she had was from the tip and the fact that she missed meals for herself in order that her husband and kids didn't go without but when she got to the point that the court chucked out the repossession order and wrote off the debt (the fact that she was clear of all the mess) she broke down. How strong was that eh??
