Adopt a Grandad on Channel 4 tonight.

[MrsSpoon]

Anyone see it? I think I would have thrown him out when he told the two year old to stick the chip in her "gob" and "shut-up". TBH I thought he was rather abnoxious, although at other times quite sweet.

agree, just total lack of expeirence with young kids(even though he was a teacher) but not having an actual family i felt sorry for him! An also not to have ever seen his wifes naked body(a sexless marriage) i also felt sorry for him!

Thought for a teacher, it was odd the way he spoke to the children, although I gathered he must have been in his 80's so was teaching in a different era.

Sad about his wife, although it was lovely the way he talked about her, that he valued her other qualities more.

yes like cleaning the home and making his dinner

LOL true, I'd forgotten those were on his list! Think he did say she was a friend and had a lovely personality too!

think i'll try that with dp, i cook and clean and now he ain't gonna see my body no more, i'll say its more of a partnership thing we have going, id love to see his face

LOL! I was rather disappointed my DH didn't see the programme and he would see that I wasn't that bad after all.

Wasn't Tigermoth almost going to take part in this??

Ooooh, didn't know that, they've got Adopt a Granny tomorrow night, wonder if she is on that?

Thought is was sad that the granddad didn't want to keep in touch with the family at the end. Although I do wonder what would have happened in later years if he became unwell and required care etc.

i wondered if they were after his ££££
