Does anyone know if the Grants are doing the coaching. Not always was i thier greatest fan but they are a good component of the show.

should make for an entertaining series... watching z-list celebs, making fools of themselves, under the pretence, of the old cliche:-
"it's all for charideeeee", is always fun.

I'm sure the viewing public will lap it up, but will they bother to vote or pledge ?? :-?

or like me, are they suffering from charity-fatigue?? :-?

I have to agree I find all this 'it's for charity' carry on rather tiresome. Many many people give to charities quietly and regularly without benefitting or furthering their thier profiles or careers. I just find all this kind of stuff wears a bit thin after a while. I imagine so little of the true profit made actually makes it to the charity anyway :-?
