Its a documentary - is that what you mean?

It's on Weds at 8pm til 9pm - 3 celebs do a "day in the life of" (or possibly longer) a single parent to "show what it is really like" (yeah right!)

do you remember that one where Michael Portilo took over from a single mother for the day - that was really good even though he seemed very patronising.

Yes, I do think it was good - could have been better though.

I honestly think these experiments should be done for a month or 6 weeks - then and only then would they see the monthly struggle to keep the money straight for example... and the tiredness/loneliness would kick in
