North London Rent Girl Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 (edited) Swindoners want second home on Devon coast. The way they and phil and kirsty are talking about it you'd think it was cancer, you honestly would. Honestly, people, get a grip! edit: They keep going on about how they've worked so hard. So have a lot of the good people of Devon, I should think, who have been priced out by people like them. What about a person who does a couple of jobs on minimum wage - are they entitled to a second home in Devon, too? I'm sure they'll be thrilled.

It seems like property porn programs aren't as popular around here as they used to be. Billy Shears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North London Rent Girl Posted May 31, 2006 Author Share Posted May 31, 2006 I know! I spose we're all so jaded by them. Even I'm finding it hard these days to summon my bile for phil und kirsty and bile-summoning isn't normally that much of a challenge for me.

Still, she gets fatter every time I see her on telly which is amusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She and her new bloke are busy renovating a flat I hear. Apparently he's a property developer, I hope he has some hefty unemployment insurance for the next few years. Also quite ironic that with all her desperate property ramping, that's all they can afford. Maybe if she spent some more time talking down the market they could bring thier new family up in a home and not a box. She will move as soon as she and Ben have finished knocking two flats into one for their family home around the corner. She and Ben were introduced, it emerges, at a Tory fundraiser, which makes her sound totally true blue. http://money.guardian.co.uk/property/story...1770082,00.html And, I hate to say it, is the really really bad news... Her desire for a big family has triggered rumours that she will retire from TV when she gives birth. "Wouldn't that be nice? Oh!" she leans back and addresses her stomach. "Wouldn't that be nice if I stayed at home with you? No, I'm back to work. January 29 2007. I have a fully paid-up contract with Channel 4 until March 31 2008 and they will hold me to that." Hopefully the market will be well and truly underwater by then, and Kirsty can take the flack... Edited May 31, 2006 by BandWagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The property programs have gone from showing the actual profit that properties realised after sale, to using tame Estate Agents to value the houses to indicate a profit. Or, in Bulgaria or wherever it was, they get the same Estate Agent who is building and selling newbuild flats to decide how much profit has been made. Perhaps in the near future they'll start calculating the profit by getting presenters of property porn programs to guest star on each other's program. Krusty and Pill will get Sarah Beeny to guest star on their show, and tell them how much she thinks the properties are worth, resulting in a big fat profit. Then Krusty and Pill can guest star on whatever program it is that Sarah Beeny does. They've all blurred into one. So in a few years time, they'll all be valuing one bed flats in some remote unemployment blackspot as worth millions, making hundreds of thousands of pounds of profit. "But don't go selling that investment property - that's what you never do". And the whole scam can go on forever. Billy Shears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
