Anthea Turner on BBC3

[iwbus]

The Turner wench is doing some housewife program on BBC3 where she seems to be showing middle-aged women how to become anally retentitive in their house. What's this about? Has AT got an OCD? And before you ask, my missus is watching the program so the usual "well turn it off then" excuse can't be used!

Dreadful programme.A kick in the teeth for feminism. Turner, for some reason, has suddenly emerged as this domestic goddess. (Bit like Nigella Lawson but without the tits and the cashmere!!). The only episode I saw has Turner attempting to teach the art of making afternoon tea. I kid you not!! Scones, Cucumber sandwiches (minus crust), best china!!!! AAARRGH Like Hyacinth Bucket on crack!!!

I watched it once. The towel folding episode. And I did it too! Do think she is obsessively tidy.

..I saw the one where she took polaroid pictures of her shoes, then kept the shoes in clear plastic shoeboxes and stuck the polaroids on the front of each.... this woman clearly has not done a day of paid work for years and has too much time on her hands... get a life Anthea, live a little, walk on the wild side eg. don't dust for a whole week!!! gasp!...she'd drop down dead if she saw my house, but then again , I am a single mum who works full time, run my own small buisness at the weekends, and actually have a social life and real friends...

I think the last day of paid "work" she had was endorsing a bar of chocolate at her wedding. Totally without shame.
