Just put it on our tab
MONEY! Britain's Biggest Spenders, ITV1, 9.00pm
Hello, we're back! Did you miss us? Okay, we'll just ignore that resounding "no" and carry on regardless. We've been internetless for the best part of two weeks (not something we'd recommend unless you're taking part in some kind of sensory deprivation challenge, and even then we'd suggest you think about long and hard first) due to moving house, and have also lost a bunch of channels since we can't get Sky in our new house. So if our selections seem slightly more Freeview-oriented these days, it's not that we've taken a bribe from the consortium (not yet, anyway - hint hint), but more that we might miss things on other channels now that we can't watch them. If you spot something that you think we should be recommending, by all means drop us an e-mail or a comment in the box below.
Innyway, moving swiftly forward, what's on the telly tonight? Well, now that The X Factor: Battle Of The Stars is over and Lucy has been crowned the victor (hooray!), ITV1 has to find something to fill that 9pm slot up against Big Brother (and dear lord, what a vile lot most of them are this year), and this is it: a documentary on people who are addicted to that well-known drug spendahol.
Largely we're recommending this because we're sure it will make us feel better about our own, slightly terrifying, spending habits. You can also join in the drinking game by taking a large gulp every time that well-known Shirley Bassey song gets used (because we refuse to believe it'll be used less than five times at an absolute minimum), so you have the opportunity to allay your own fears by basking in other people's misfortunes AND get lashed in the bargain. What could be better?

So I guess you were still sober by the end of this?
Oh well, at least we could piss ourselves laughing at the guy who looked like he'd drawn his eyebrows on with marker pen and done his fake tan using felt tips.

We didn't watch it in the end, we were too busy cooking dinner and we couldn't see the telly. But come on, going on previous form, you can see where we were going with the drinking game prediction, right?
Looking for information and found it at this great site...
