Are you worried about the health of a family member?

Do you wish you had more support to improve their lifestyle?


BBC One are making a new television programme and you could be part of it!


What if a GP could actually spend more time with you, beyond the appointment in the surgery, and offer a month-long health programme at home?


Studio Lambert, the makers of BAFTA award-winning Gogglebox and Undercover Boss, are looking for families who would like a more individual approach from a GP. From eczema to a bad back; insomnia to asthma, our doctor will work with you and try to help develop a healthier, happier lifestyle for your loved ones.


If you would like to be considered to take part, or even just find out more, contact [email protected]


All calls and e-mails are strictly confidential and there is no obligation to participate.

They may well have had a "pat on the back" from the industry. But they specialise in "well crafted" car crash TV..!

Many years ago as a teenager in the 80's, I answered an add in the Stage newspaper looking for "unusual acts"..
So, I jumped the National express coach from the West Country & traveled to a rather sterile studio set up above an antiques dealer in London..
After performing a surreal magic show to a cold reception of just one guy and his camera, I left.
Grabbing my stuff the bloke asked "do you do anything else?"

I later found out this guy was in the porn industry.... :)

Is this another "Has a traumatic event" posting, whilst I would love my gp to be able to spend more time in consultation with me, after the other fiasco I'm not biting

This is different.. This one allows the unwitting participants to prostitute their position for "15 minutes of fame", while "ethics" lie on the cutting room floor....

Are we that stupid, its bad enough having to live as we do without having it splashed all over the "Telly", I suppose some will be seduced by the "15 minuets of fame" though.

Hmmm...more time with my GP? When I told her my insulin resistance was causing me "hunger" she said I was mistaken and must mean "thirst."

Pass.

(Quite like Gogglebox though to be fair)

Tea?? Sat in front of log burner blazing with a glass of wine! So warming up!!

(Not cold but got humungous Amounts of free wood to get through!! Got 8x10 shed 5' high in wood with 12 pallets every week as freebies. Even in winter only burn one pallet a day!!) got raised beds from pallets too, any other uses anybody can think of whilst I'm chilling, hotting up?

Actually its intersting to read gp's responses to media wanting to enrol them on progeammes. Majority (99%) don't want to touch with a barge pole!!
