Has that series gone forever? Are they ever going to bring it back? Much better than Spendaholics (in my opinion).....

And, speaking as a parent who has just put his daughter through 'uni', so much more realistic.I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
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.

Sugarpants - I don't think it is on anymore (not even repeats)...I had a look at the website a while ago and it didn't look like there is due a new series unfortunately.0

I do enjoy a good spendaholic's too... but they seem to dwell to long on the shock tactics/cold turkey and give out very little real advice. and the end is always a bit rushed. I do love a happy ending though!
Plus some of the people are really annoying!!! Grrr!!
Although i secretly sort of love Benjamin!I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -

Damn it...It should be back on...
Soo many ppl in debts now they should have a TV channel dedicated to clearing debts in my opinion. Would that be great??SAVING FOR OUR FIRST HOUSE DEPOSIT
