Name and Shame - The Wright Stuff

Options
This morning "The Wright Stuff and Channel 5" had a discussion on people in debt. They asked people who were in debt to call in and tell how much debt they were in and how it affected them.

You guessed it!!!! IT WAS AN 0871 NUMBER - HOW IRONIC IS THAT????
Mr. Wright and Channel 5 - you have just been named and shamed!!!

    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    So what does the Wright Stuff do? Does it actually change anything?

    If not, then people in debt are just a source of revenue and entertainment.
