    jason, please could you make a series called How Big Celebrity Love Island Chav Property Makeover Wars Made My Plastic Surgery Go Incredibly Wrong - i'm sure this is exactly what ITV need to get more viewers.

    Personally Id quite like to see some people making money from the things they have around thier home, maybe an auction or car boot format?
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    I think these types of programmes are cheap, tacky, poor quality and unoriginal. In a time when property has been ramped in price so high only those with premium incomes can still afford to actually buy a home this is in extremely poor taste.

    I would have also thought with viewers switching off by the day ITV would have had a little more sense than to keep repeating these brainless shows. THIS IS EXACTLY WHY YOU HAVE LOST SO MANY VIEWERS.

    Personally, I'd like to see some programmes about - oh no, hold on, I haven't got a TV.

    My money saving tip for today - get rid of your telly. You won't regret it.

  • klaatu- I didn't have a telly for about 5 weeks when I moved and it was like my legs had been cut off! I was in bed at 9 every night, and put on a stone in weight through boredom!

    What are the odds that it starts off as "Britain's Best Buys" then, midway through production, becomes "House Purchases From Hell"....?

    :rolleyes:
