Carol Bloody Vorderman!!!!!

After watching the one show tonight, I note how smug CBV looked on there. Do you think she feels guilty about promoting First Plus in any way and if she does, would she like to offer all of us who were duped, a token gesture as a refund???????????

Carol if you do log in here (I doubt it out of guilt), please post!

    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    None whatsoever I would think. She was paid to do a job and she did it. Whether they used her or someone else or some unknowns, it wouldnt have changed anything. People will still have applied for credit.

    If you do fancy a bit of a laugh, then go on youtube and look up the spoof adverts for Picture Loans (remember Josh and his Scoo'er) . The dubbed voices are funny and the comments about being able to afford it are spot on.

    I think she sells property now..... probably the repossessed ones from Firstplus....:eek:


    Vorderman, 47, announced in July she would be leaving Countdown after she was told her pay would be cut by 90 per cent.
    Vorderman - who has written a book called Better Homes telling people how to increase the value of their own property - is understood to have paid £2.98m in 2002 for the 3,600 sq ft, four-bedroom flat in the block on Albert Embankment.

    Why would she feel guilty , or even why should she tbh . Yet again its people looking to blame someone else for their bad financial decisions . Even my ( then ) 14 year old son used to shout at the adverts for these places pointing but ''yes look what you have to repay ''
    Vuja De - the feeling you'll be here later
