We're willing to wager you've heard a fair bit about this one over the past couple of days. The Oh Noes lobby have been clutching their pearls at what is apparently another example of the BBC's blatant disregard for child safety, this show in which a selection of teenage couples are given a proper, real, living, breathing and oh-yes-crying baby to look after. It's a very literal case of "won't somebody think of the children?", although we're slightly baffled by quite what they hoped to achieve, since the series has already been filmed and is in the can, therefore the babies in question have already been exposed to whatever dangers they were likely to be exposed to, and have presumably emerged unscathed the other side. But then, perhaps it's only real if it gets shown on television. But does that mean that, by that reasoning, everything that gets shown on television is real? If so: awesome. We're off to slay some vampires as soon as we've posted this.

ANYway, what else can we say about it beyond that? Well, we're quite tempted to watch purely on the strength of the clip we saw the other week where one girl arbitrarily decides, after a narrowly-avoided pushchair-related accident in a supermarket, that she's had enough now and doesn't want this baby any more, and since she's decided that, then the producers should just take the baby any more because they can't force her to do something if she doesn't want to. We're quite tempted to live our lives more like that. Imagine that, at the checkout in Tesco for example: "Pay for my groceries? But I don't want to, and you can't force me to do something I don't want to do!" Sounds fun, doesn't it?
