Trinny & Susannah Undress The Nation
Posted by Jess McGuire at 9:33 PM on May 8, 2008
Erm, just in case I'm not the only one out there watching this (and the odds are, I'm not - IPL Twenty/20 Cricket? Thank you, but no...), I'd just like to point out how hilarious Trinny and Susannah's po-faced approach to grabbing random British women's tits and talking about the crime of appallingly fitted brassieres as though they were discussing atrocities in Sudan is - and by 'hilarious', I mean 'slap worthy'.
Kelsey Munro is right on the money by saying -
If you're doing this kind of television, at a bare minimum you should be funny. Trinny and Susannah come across as the sort of delusionally self-involved fashionistas that Absolutely Fabulous used to parody, except they are screamingly unfunny. This is one hour of your life you'll never get back.
You're right, Kelsey. You're right.
I've never craved an hour of Patricia Arquette's adorably plump screen daughter's precociousness more. I miss you, Medium! Come back, all is forgiven!

We watched this, and while I generally like T&S, I was left 'meh'. Mostly because they really, really downplayed just how hard it can be to /get/ a properly fitted bra if you are not in a very narrow slice of average.
I'm a 44B. I have /never/ been able to walk into a store, get fitted, and buy a bra. They just don't make them outside of specialist shops.
My girlfriend, who is a EE, likewise can't buy in anything but specialist shops, and rarely then.
All in all, too much sensationalism, not enough actual information.
