Todays (Thursday) was the best yet. Guy who turned up for a party and never left living there for free, £600 per month on booze for 4, son borrowed his fathers motorbike then crashed it and then sold it cheap and blew the money! This will go down as a classic.

It was a repeat. I'd seen it before so it might be on again. Also they are sometimes repeated on one of the sky channels if you have it though i'm not sure which channel.
I like the programme but I do think that they choose their 'subjects' wisely. There are frequently adult children or older teenagers in it, who can earn to contribute. Often have jobs where overtime is a possibility.0 -
Sounds like I missed the best one yet. Normally, as Spendless says, there are older or adult children who start off being really unhelpful and cause the family to do really badly in the first few weeks before finally taking on overtime and just managing to scrape to the final total (they always do it).

They're repeats? I haven't seen them before so I thought they were new. Still quite a good show though.
