    Yes, we obvioulsy realise this is a very sensitive issue and there can appear to be little to gain by revealing all but I know people who have benefited form similar such exercises in the past.

    i always thought that the people who done this shows got paid a lot to do it i mean there is no way in the world i would go on prime time tv and tell everyone how i manged to get into thousand of pounds in debt i would never live it down :eek:
    i cant slow down i wont be waiting for you i cant stop now because im dancing

    I am glad you did frighten him away scouser. I bet he will get some takers and I like those sort of shows. However, I think Martin should front it because he is our expert and it is the least the TV people could do if they want to poach his sources.

    ITV will find someone to fill the spot. theres always someone who wants the limelight. I guess having a full independent financial health check sounds good to many people but I guess the ITV arent interested in actually educating people about charities such as payplan an d the CCCS when ,ost of the income comes from Advertising companies like Pcture Loans and Rip of IVA Ltd.

    BTW I wont be putting my name forward. ;)

    See I can never understand this type of programme, like How Clean is Your House - Hi World, I'm a right slob! Clinic of Embarrassing Illnesses - I can't discuss this with my Doctor, but here's my Chalfonts for all the World to see! I was a twit with money and spent more than I earn, would everyone like a laugh at how stupid a supposedly intelligent person can be?

    WHY??????

    Mind you, I'll be watching Dispatches: How we are drinking ourselves to death, with a nice bottle of red. Might pick up some tips...
  • If somebody from here does sign up with this show, can they wear a DFW t-shirt ?

    What a bizarre thing to say on a message board where other posters probably know more about your financial situation that your closest friends do! The majority of people on here have disclosed their entire incoming and outgoings, every mistake they made in getting themselves into debt and every action they take to get themselves out of debt. I sincerely doubt that anyone here would be in the least bit concerned about other members of the board knowing how much they earned for baring all on TV!

    Well said!

    Ok, after careful consideration I will put my name forward if you wish to pay me a 10k fee. The money will have to be paid upfront as I have heard horror stories about receiving payment from production companies.

    I hear 10k Is quite reasonable im cheaper than a guest appreance by Jade Goody ;)
