Meet the Rees-Moggs

[FrenchandSaunders]

Anyone seen this on Prime 😳

Watching it now. I’m oddly fascinated. That youngest one is something else!

I can’t understand why they’ve done it.

I really don’t get it all. I assume they don’t need money that desperately? Does he think it will make him popular?

Cba. The rich get richer.

I think he's trying to humanise himself for the electorate.

He's too much of a toff to go into the jungle.

Is it free on prime?

Yes free on prime.
his wife is worth £45 million

Oh god. Can’t stand the man - why give him air time?!

It’s in a trust, so she doesn’t have unlimited access.

3 kids at boarding school, 3 in a private day school, a country home and London pad, lots of staff, expensive hobbies like horse riding. I guess they have high outgoings…
but equally can’t imagine they get that much for doing this. Baffles my why they expose their kids like that.

Their daughter is very sweet, the two youngest are out of control. They walk all over JRM too.

Lucy Mangan has a good review of it in The Guardian here.

I'm just surprised that anyone would want to have sex with him 6 times. I mean, I'm older than him, and he's a complete old fogey.

Watch the programme, it's on discovery + on Sky, his wife is let's say old school aristocratic type and they look like they genuinely are suited.

I can't stand his politics but it's a master stroke to do the programme because he comes across as so much more human and ordinary bizarrely. Their little kids are a handful that run rings around him

Not free on Prime, it’s an additional subscription to Disney.

In what way are they inbred? I might be touchy on this as I'm one of 6 children and we're like peas in a pod, so now I'm worried people think we're inbred, yet my four grandparents were from 4 different countries. Is JRM a blood relative of his wife?

Who was it who called him 'the haunted pencil'?!

I think this was casually being derogatory and insulting: because we don’t like JRM, it’s ok to be offensive towards him

This. He has plans, no doubt.

I won't be watching as I don't have Sky. Besides that, I still wouldn't watch, I've seen him on TV. The honourable member for the 18th century.

Of course they aren’t. What a horrible thing to say about children who didn’t choose their parents. The parents are not related, they were childhood friends (unsurprisingly given how posh they both are).

And I don’t like him or his politics but attacking the kids is below the line.

I don’t agree with his politics but have to say very much enjoyed the tv show!

It is a horrible thing to say, and I'd just like to point out that I was questioning the horrible thing; I'm not the poster that stated it.
