The blind leading the bland
"David Blunkett, the ex-Home Secretary, is to front a TV show called Banged Up With Blunkett.
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/0
Sadly it seems the title is slightly misleading - Blunkett will not be sent to prison but will oversee a Big Brother type show where off-the-rails teenagers are scared back onto the straight and narrow by Blunkett and some ex-cons.
The short-tempered MP heads up a pseudo parole board which decides what to do with errant youngsters."
Between this and the recent doco series Portillo On Thatcher (and if that's not a perfect description of his best wank fantasy...) there's way to many politicos showing up in light entertainment. Starve 'em of the oxygen of publicity, I say!
