Just watched the programme with Sue Perkins and Giles Coren called Edwardian Supersize Me on BBC . These two people just ate loads. Typically it was over 5000 calories per day compare to what we know as a sensible level of 1800 per day.

Just watching them scoff down all that food during breakfast, lunch and dinner made me feel sick. There was never just one of two dishes, it was always a full on banquet going on even for breakfast which could include pork chops thrown in.

The amount of money that was spent by the upper classes on their excesses were amazing. Having a melon each would have cost the equivalent of £80 per person although in Japan some things still do cost just as much!

That Sue Perkins was supposedly a semi-vegetarian as well. Their burps must have stunk.

Those bloody life coach books just talk drivel don't they?  They are getting worse than the plethora of diet books.

I bet they earn good money for the authors though so they can get the right work-life balance. 

Arrgh! This Grease thing, this cost of many colours thing, what a load of beau-laxs!

Too much and too often these shows come around with mediocre talent there just to make up the numbers and make up the spectacle in the sense that they are just cannon fodder for our laughter.
