What not to wear - why has it become so nasty?

I felt really angry watching it tonight. All these women bearing their souls in front of millions of people and then being told to p* off because they hadn't made it into the programme. It was a really interesting programme this evening, about the invisibility and depression engendered by menopause, but this new format where extremely vulnerable women expose themselves to millions of people on TV and then get nothing from it seems really exploitative and unpleasant to me. Am I being over-sensitive?

I think they are nasty and shallow and don't watch them. They are like those interior decorating programmes where all the houses end up looking the same. Very boring.

yes,that was a bit unneccessary...

Bit too much boob and flab wobbling by T and especially S yesterday for my taste ! How bad did make their proteges feel in the 3d mirror - with "you don't love yourself, do you ?" type comments. The results were great though .

Can't watch this anymore as I can't get past the tedium of the first 20 mins - the incredibly irrelevant selection process. Boring!

Know what you mean - so I don't watch the first 20 minutes and then watch the rest instead

by that point (after wandering off in disgust) I've ended up on mumsnet and then time disappears...

These people put themselves up for it I am afraid - I cried last night at the transformation made to the Social Worked look and confidence - she was beautiful!!

(Thought haircut of other lady was a bit gross though and Trinny is starting to look like she has had too much surgery and Susanna just looks a mess most of the time!!)
