The Duchess In Hull: ITV Sign Sarah Ferguson
ITV have signed Sarah Ferguson, The Duchess Of York for her own two part fat fighting show this summer.
The show is provisionally called “The Duchess In Hull” and will see Sarah moving to Hull and helping the unhealthy Sargerson family, living on benefits improve their eating habits.
Sarah said: “This programme is an attempt to explore solutions to the growing obesity problem in the UK. I want to see whether we can help families all over the country, no matter what their budget, to improve their lifestyles through using what is already available to them in their community.
“Weight issues affect all sorts of people from all walks of life. The family I met in Hull live in a way that I hadn’t experienced - feeding six on a week’s benefits.”

I think sara could of gone to a better place in hull then preston road. I am a a tenent of hull. I how ever live on north bransholme wich regardless to rumers is a very nice place. I think that hull is always getting bad publiserty and people should see others parts of hull were we are doing what we can to stop teenage crime and do activertys and trips so the children are not out on the street some were doing tings they shouldent be. I am only 21 and think very highley of north bransholme and the people that are doin things to help improve were we live. I think what she as done is a good thing but they have yet again showen a bad part of hull.

Come on you guys,when u think of hull..u think of the crap area they showed u, im stayin in hullat the moment and i know there are a million places nicer than that, but its real, and besides having an extremely ugly backgroud behind fergie makes her slightly more nicer to look at.
as for gordon brown, he wont do much in his time in office, he has been put there to fail. Labour is out. Luckily i back other horses not within this country, however the only way that you can help bring up an area in a fast amount of time is whats happening now in hull. people from outside buying houses cause they are cheap, refurbing them and selling them on. This doesnt help the people of preston road. But we do all have to help each other, if you think the goverment will help you think again, get out get a job and help yourself.
