[#2445152]

So we've had Gypsy Weddings, Teenage Sex, Embarrassing Bodies, let's have your ideas for the next step..

How about "Abortion Clinic"? That would be riveting.

"Nick-Nack Paddy's Smack"

Patrick (21) is a long term Heroin user. In this four part series we take away Patrick's heroin and methodone and our cameras follow him through the highs, but mainly lows, as he tries desperately to hold his world together.

"Could Get A Car For that"

Our investigators follow the secretive world of mountain biking where men and women buy tiny bits of metal for huge sums of money and hide them from their partners. 'Tommy' is typical of the cult and spends most of his time at home on internet forums talking about bikes rather than riding them. Tommy has run up a £20k debt buying bikes that never come out of the shed and has a chronic addiction to carrot cake and niche whiskeys

I'd like to see people who provide appalling customer service explaining why they are so bad face to face with annoyed, frustrated and upset clients.

I'd call the program [b]THE CHAIR[/b] and would like to volunteer for the episode that features BT.

"TandemJeremy's Cold Turkey", in which the subject goes through the torment and trials of coming to terms with not being Scottish, as well as not being able to be right about everything online.

😈

(I know he's reading.... 😉 Need to prompt him to come back....)

[i]"Could Get A Car For that"[/i]

Oh yeah - could definitely be a series!
Episode 2) Features Mr Nomusictaste desperately trying to justify spending £10000 on a hi-fi to listen to Pink Floyd in his 8x10 living roomed flat. "It sounds so much better than an iPod!" "Pardon? Oh, no of course I can't take it on the train."

Am I? How would you know? Actually, I'm not. I'd far rather see him here, to be honest, even if he was an insufferable prig at times.

'Fixie My Life?'

Our cameras follow Ty, a young media student living Blackheath in London, as he attempts to ingratiate his life into the secretive and aloof fixed-wheel bike culture that dominates the lives of countless 18-35 year old trend setters in East London. Watch in stunned silence as he attempts to befriend Elsbeth, a tattooed twenty-something preserve maker and sometime cardigan knitter, using a set of Miche crank-arms and a Hello Kitty limited edition cake whisk. Feel his pain and desperation as he calls his parents in Andover and asks for an increase in his allowance because his Dia-Compe brakes were stolen and he's spent all his wages on gingerbread lattes, cranberry beer and the latest edition of Rouleur magazine. Smile as he triumphs against his nemesis Salvadore in their ongoing row over the efficacy of Mac software over Windows...

waits for flasheart to comment on on his own behaviour feels it will be an even longer wait Rather predciatble deflection cpt 🙄

If you cannot see the difference between their comments- which made only a reference to his name and lighthearted play on the name Jeremy and your snidey personal dig then you are buffon

FFS you started a thread on it as well CPT

Indeed I did, and you have wrongly assumed that meant that I was somehow celebrating "getting him out" or something. I feel no need to comment on my own behaviour, thanks, and I'm really not sure you have any need to either.

By the way, what's a "buffon"?

I will comment on what I want thanks assuming your greatness allows it - darn I am not questioning you again there am I?
buffon is a football player but I think you can work out the typo without my help. Remember dont comment on my behaviour - you would not want to appear to be a hypocrit now would you

I doubt even Channel 4 would stoop as low as to screen that.

Jeez, I go play football and Junkyard dumps all over my nice thread again. Here's another documentary idea:
"Forum Whingers" - A day in the life of someone who browses internet forums. Not to contribute anything amusing and/or useful to the threads, oh no. Just to whinge at other posters how naughty, unreasonable and unthinking they are about everyone else's feelings.

(Cancelled after one episode for being too damn BORING)

Forget about Jeremy, what about...

'Internet dating with The Southern Yeti'

It could be interactive with viewers e-mailing in suggestions for which particular perversion he takes on each date...

I heard their new series was going to be called 'Have Your Cake and Eat It'. The premise is this. A roving reporter finds a disfigured/mentally disabled/poor/undereducated/mentally ill/fat person, then proceeds to point and laugh a them at some length. Then they give them a cake and tell them to eat it. If anyone complains that the show is exploitative, the producer says that they did them a favour because they gave them a cake.
