Anyone else watching "The animal Au pair" on channel 4??

[Pinkchampagne]

I would just hate to work for that woman!!

[lily333]

lol, agree completely, though at least she's a bit better than the dreadful women on last week's episode!

[Pinkchampagne]

I didn't see last weeks episode. Was the woman really awful?

[Aero]

Awful woman - would have hated to work for her! 9pm coming in time for a 24 yr old!! I'd be out of there quick sharp!

[lily333]

am thinking there were a few on last week's show, all v.offensive and the sort of women who obviously wanted a nanny but were too tight (not too poor!) to get one....

[elasticbandstand]

the au pair is fantastic... so good with her answers, i am malting, as a retort to .. there is your hair in my salad.

[bananabump]

I hate that woman, she's such an overbearing witch!

[lily333]

sacked - bloody hell what a nasty, pathetic horse-face!

[Pinkchampagne]

The woman is just awful!

[elasticbandstand]

i hope she doesnt burn her things..

[renaldo]

how many hours is that poor girl working?

[Whoooosh]

Faults on both sides but I so feel for the girl and the woman is clearly too tight to pay a decent wage for a decent amount of work.
She is a nightmare!
Hope she's not a Mumsnetter....

[Pollyanna]

that woman is horrible. and her son is pretty horrid too.

[elasticbandstand]

the children called the au pair, big bottom and the mum did nothing.

[lily333]

mmm, not exactly showing her son a good example is she? and as for tell mummy what he wants - he's 3 or 4 for God's sake! How to turn a child into a brat....

[Pinkchampagne]

That poor girl is so nice & has kept her cool really well.
What a cow that woman is! I pity the next poor girl that has to work for her.

[theslownorris]

It's the child I feel sorry for-a mother like that and strangers coming and going.

[Pinkchampagne]

It seems she has got through rather a lot of au pairs, which is hardly suprising!

[bananabump]

Why did she ask her little boy what the new au pair should look like? What was she hoping to achieve by asking him that? Surely as a mother you try not to place an emphasis on looks...

Why doesn't she just get a farmhand and look after her own child and house? She doesn't appear to have a job.

[Whoooosh]

Poor little boy has no hope really-when he hears his Mother ordering someone to "clean up that shit"etc etc...

[lilymolly]

switched it off as the mother was getting on my tits

[Pinkchampagne]

Ahh, she is back in contact with her dad!

[bananabump]

"I've just lost 2 1/2 stone so now I can call him (the son) fatbum"

[MadamePlatypus]

I can't understand the attitude that an au pair a week is OK. I just want to shout at these people - Au pair means living as a member of the family! If you wouldn't want your daughter to do it when she is 18, don't ask your au pair to do it.

The thing I really, really don't understand is why do people agree to be on these programmes?

[Pinkchampagne]

I was very shocked at that comment too!

[elasticbandstand]

she is start raving mad
