Trashy and exploitive. But these shows seem to fascinate viewers. Perhaps it makes them feel better to know that there are others who are in worse situations than their own.

:o I once appeared on "change that" where they do up pieces of furniture, they altered some old dilapadated crates that my then hubbie got from work (they were crates that the cable tv boxes were transported in) and made them into army type toy boxes for my lads... and now they are being enjoyed by my friends little boy... they were done about 10 years ago

I've bitten the bullet and told the biggest gossip on here what happened and he says i should tell you all what happened! He says its an example of what positives can come out of being on tv!

Anyway here goes.

I was 17 and working for Business Support Unit on the YTS in Accrington and we were based above M & S and what is now pharmacy & card shop. Anyway Granada did this programme that went out on Mondays at 3.30pm & 6pm full of local stuff. They had a segment in it which they got people to advertise themselves for jobs and they rang the training side of BSU up and they told the trainees and 10 of them said they wanted to advertise themselves for a job. On the day only 9 of them turned up and they still wanted another one. I got asked if i would do go on and fill the last place up. Me being me said no and then got talked into it by a couple of people. We got 3 mins to talk about ourselves and what kind of job we were looking for. I ran out of things to say and ended up saying im honest and reliable. Went home & told my family but also said for no one to say anything and managed to keep my mouth shut. I was praying for it to go out on Monday afternoon not the teatime one. My mum rang me up at work to say that i hadnt been on in the afternoon and with that i thought well thats me finished! Anyway i was on the teatime one. I ended up being the last one being broadcast in the segment and when it ended and went back to the presenter he said i'm sure you are jennifer! I hated that. Went to the pub later on that night and the amount of stick i got for doing that was unbelievable. One bloke said he'd come in from work and had sat down and was eating his tea - he had a mouthful of peas when i came on - he said the dog enjoyed eating the peas after he'd spat em out all over!
There was 10 interviewed and broadcast - and i was the only one who got a job from it. What happened was my bro's old boss from Moss Gears was watching it and he recognised my last name and he was a director and was looking for a secretary/office junior in his office. They contacted BSU on the tuesday, was interviewed on the wednesday and i started there on the following Monday!
