A disgrace of a show that mocks people with a problem...

A comedy about fat people. Trying to lose weight. Well done ITV for commissioning such utter degrading trash.

People who have weight problems seriously don't need this kind of ridicule - there are far too many people in the UK and around the world either trying to lose weight when they don't need to (anorexics), or are a bit too big.

This programme only perpetuates ignorance and greed at the base level. Yet another ITV programme which makes fun of people with problems.
