Me: Hey, what are you watching?
Lovely Wife: A British show combining the best of sexism and class-ism. "Ladettes to Ladies." They take these ten young working class women and send them to English finishing school.
Me: Yikes, who's the battleaxe?
Lovely Wife: There's a team of snotty old women. They 'help" the girls by teaching them how to sew dresses, how to walk, how to wear pearls and cross their ankles, flower arranging ... In this one, they're paraded around at a country mansion dinner party with rich people to see if they can blend in. If, by being sufficiently demure, will they be accepted by their "betters."
Me: ... sweet God.
Lovely Wife: (plummy British accent) "And the winner receives a special prize from the prestigious Eggleston Hall Finishing School."
Me: What's the prize?
Lovely Wife: A clitirodectomy.
Me: (spit take)

Damn. Can I marry her next?
I was reading the Onion yesterday and saw a blurb about the show. Looks hysterical!
I got the Japanese make and model of your wife in my home.
I can, as ever, only apoligise for the standard of British TV, despite not being part of the industry yet - I still feel responsible in some way.
When will this reality TV / life changing competition trend end...WHEN???
Having said that, I could really go for another series of Hell's Kitchen USA.
Brilliant.
You, sir, are a lucky man.
re simon underwood:
the standard of British TV may be low, but it has brought the world Top Gear! And for that, I thank the Brits!
Note To Self: Steal Wife. Maybe negotiate trade.
Rogers- I will not make any comment regarding stealing your wife, besides, I'm too young But does she have a sister?
OK, when I read that last night I thought it said "They take these ten young working women and send them to English finishing school."
Which would make for a whole other type of show. One far more entertaining, I suspect...
So now you know what the rest of us have known for many, many years.
Flynn!
Good to see your presence on KFM! Someone else who understands how John married up in soooo many ways......
I can't believe the crap we give you in exchange for BSG and Veronica Mars.
Jess wasn't a fan of that either:
