This news is very peculiar... basically, ITV have signed Sarah Ferguson, The Duchess Of York, to star in her own fat fighting show this summer. As opposed to the show being Fergie shedding the pounds, she's instead going to become "The Duchess In Hull" (handy as that's the provisional title for the show) and will see Sarah moving to Hull and helping the unhealthy Sargerson family, who, like just about every Northerner on the telly at the moment, are living on benefits and eat nothing but crap.

Sarah said: "This programme is an attempt to explore solutions to the growing obesity problem in the UK. I want to see whether we can help families all over the country, no matter what their budget, to improve their lifestyles through using what is already available to them in their community. Weight issues affect all sorts of people from all walks of life. The family I met in Hull live in a way that I hadn't experienced - feeding six on a week's benefits." This could be some amazing carcrash telly. More news when we have it.
