some of them must do it to get their 5 minutes of fame, surely? The 86 year old mother-in-law was so staged as she left and then went back ...

I actually was going to audition for this, but decided against it in the end as didn't feel I was plastic enough lol.

my dd 16m old laughed her socks off while watching it. it must been that funny to made her laugh. she was playing around and stopped while some bizarre people sang

this is my fave "reality" tv show. Missed the original show as it was my sisters wedding but watched the repeat at 1:00 this morning and am watching the bits I missed now.
PMSL. Love it.

anniebear · 20/08/2006 20:04

I also thought Jonathan was gorgeous!!! Could imagine him being very popular

misdee · 19/08/2006 20:18

MoreTeaAnyone · 19/08/2006 20:15

Actually I think you may have been right SewingMadMummy, I can;t really remember. I was too busy laughing to hear.

SewingMadMummy · 19/08/2006 20:14

Ah she was 86??? Have curry confusion (tonights tea)

Thomcat · 19/08/2006 20:11

Loving it already. The early days are just brilliant aren't they. Thought I'd properly blub with that young kid who had to leave and come back when he'd had a drink aka pep talk from mum.

MoreTeaAnyone · 19/08/2006 20:10

Soooo funny.
PMSL. Yeh the 86 year old was great!!!!

BROWNY · 19/08/2006 20:10

We love it! It was the best laugh we've had for a long time! My dd1 kepts telling me to stop hiding behind my hands! That poor young boy, I felt for him, he was determined enough to try and again, maybe getting through might build his confidence.

NattyandThomas · 19/08/2006 20:10

SewingMadMummy · 19/08/2006 20:09
