Hotel Series For Five Life

Five Life has commissioned Twofour to produce a ten-part series spun off from its Hotel Inspector series.

The Hotel Inspector – Unseen will complement Five's reality series, due to enter its third season, which follows hotelier Ruth Watson in her no-nonsense approach to hotel management.

Celebrity Baron Reality Show

Gardenstown Four unlikely celebrities are being given the chance to become a genuine Scottish baron in a new reality show for ITV1.

Made by the Twofour production company, the three-part series will see Malcolm McLaren, former Hear'Say singer Suzanne Shaw and comedian Mike Read attempting to convince residents in a remote Aberdeenshire fishing village they have what it takes to become their baron.

The celebrities must become very involved in the community and at the end of filming, the villagers will take part in an election ballot and whoever wins takes the title.

Filming has started in Gardenstown and transmission is expected later in the summer.

And so looking to keep up with MTV’s recent slide into the muck with Jodie Marsh’s search for a husband, Vh1 presents Celebrity Rehab.

We know the high-profile celebrities battling addiction problems that have recently attended rehab, but the Lindsays and Britneys are a bit too starry for this show. It can’t even aspire to the level of a Jesse Metcalfe (the gardener from Desperate Housewives and squeeze of Nadine from Girls Aloud) or even rehab ever-present Pete Doherty. Oh no, when you sign up to share your cold-turkey hell and group therapy chat with TV cameras, you are officially at career rock bottom. And with that, I introduce you to the Pasadena Recovery Center’s patients…

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
