From: telly Category: TV Date: 15 May 2007 Time: 04:52 PM Review: watercooler tv as they say in the free papers. obvious contradiction: shy virgin decides to lose it in very public documentary. Seemed somehow a bit forced, with a slightly pretend seriousness in the voiceover. I think these shows work for people because really the subjects just want some attention, and their problems arent that great. But you wonder what happens once the documentary crew leave, probably the fame lingers once the show is aired, imbuing our nervous nellies with vigour and big balls.
