BBC2 - The Trouble With Girls

? Poor BB. Could the announcer sound any more lugubrious?

Is it particularly cold up there? they seem to wear their coats all the time......

? freezing!

Well, at least you can see why I'm desperate to move away! Obviously they're showing the worst parts, but still

How did that 19 y/o get laid with those gnashers?

And why oh why oh why oh why does the non-pregnant friend of the skinny crazy girl have to borrow my voice? That's what I sound like!

Baby Buns - chin up, you could be from Fleetwood, like me! And we have a sea breeze there to keep things even colder!

OK, I've got to know...

why do so many northern homes decorated by getting 2 types of wallpaper, papering half the wall horizontally in each and dividing it with a border? I notice it on GMTV too ?

its a really sad programme.

Powered breast milk. oh my dear god. Shes pregnant a few weeks after giving birth by the looks of it.

I think a lot of these houses were decorated at least 10 years ago and haven't been touched since! That is one thing I can honestly say I'm not guilty of ?

I don't think I've watched anything as depressing as this in a very long time.

This is the kind of programme that makes me want to give up hope for the future of the human race.

Very depressing and it painted Rochdale in a very bad light. It's sad really though. Can't believe that Becki thought that formula was just powdered breast milk, beyond clueless.

Vanessa might do OK if she gets a job in Leicester, the makeover was very needed. Her parents were also cluless though, thinking that mock "GSCEs" were actual qualifications.

Like Zoay it makes me despair.

What a scary programme.

The powdered breast milk thing was unbelievable and not going on the pill because it makes you depressed? Well surely not as depressed as having two kids at the age of 18 and no future. I thought the Leicester make over was amazing though, she looked fab.

It did rather make Rochdale look like a complete hole. ?

It is - whilst it showed some of the worst bits, unfortunately none of it was exaggerated. There are nicer bits, but I fear they're all slowly headed in the same direction.

I think it was "GSC's" wasn't it. ? and "I wanna be a Police Officer, 'cause I'm good at fighting"......oh my days! Thank God for my upbringing.

These sorts of programmes make me really upset.

You're right it was GSCs. "If your Vanessa gets her GSCs she could be, well, even a manager of something".

After these comments, I'm gonna have to find this on iplayer

Ta!
