Advantages: Interesting to see how they turn out. Funny.

Disadvantages: Cheap. Repetative. Some really bad jokes!!!

This has got to be one of the worst programs on TV.

It is a "make-under" show which generally takes women, although some men participate as well, and gets them to tone down their outrageous make-up, tan or fashion sense.

Like eating Pringles and watching a horrifying car crash at the same time, you just can't stop watching, no matter how cringeworthy!

Really, you should watch this. Just once. You will be amazed at the lack of budget, the corny comments and the state of some of the people they get to participate.

Once they introduce the make-up-ridden person who is wearing clothes made from dental floss, they get to meet POD. This is supposed to be a computer that slates their senses of what looks good.

Now the title of the show becomes apparent. They have shown photos of the participants to 100 people on the street and asked them multiple choice questions. One of these is always, if you saw this person would you snog, marry or avoid them?

The participant gets to choose what they think the majority would pick. Great, this shows how big headed they are (or are not!).

Then a make-under is done, although there is no real advice to the people watching as to the decisions made. The only clues are the participant gets a choice of hairstyle and celebrity styles that they prefer. Usually they get a choice of 4 to pick from.

Next, you see the dental-floss wearing, orange-skinned glitter ball after their make-under. Sometimes quite a change!

One girl who I could only describe as a "minger" on here, actually turned out to be quite a looker when she didn't slap it on.

I've got to admit that it is quite addictive through the program but since each episode is almost identical, I can't recommend you watch it more than once.

But seriously, get you sense of humour on and watch one of these if you have never watched it before!

You'll find it on BBC3.

Summary: Watch it once. For the experience. Then forget it ever existed!
