How do they get people to voluntarily appear on a programme called 'Bulging Brides'? I mean, the mind boggles, doesn't it?

it's unlikely to be ten thousand. Her Nibs, whose company makes a lot of programmes for US cable, wouldn't pay a penny. As for famous..........

In my day a bulging bride was one whose groom had her father's shotgun pointing at his back.

If you ever watch The Word, on late night Channel 4 in the early 1990's you will know that some they had a section called "i'd do anything to get on TV". All of the items were odd; some of them were down right disturbing.

The bride could also make a few quid appearing in this programme...

That's right...the young bloke who snogged a granny is one I recall. It (that section) was indeed disturbing tv.

Being 60 has it's merits. I no longer have to go out to the 'Grab a Granny' nights. I can do that at home.

I think there was one woman on that section who stuck her finger in a sweaty fat mans belly button then sucked her finger; something along those lines anyway.
