Well said...you beat me to it.

Re: No Going Back
 

just got an email reply and guess what.they don't offer a fee and usually people want to take part as they are setting up a new business and its good publicity for them to get there business on t.v............they must be bloody crazy, and there goes my plan for a free holiday and a bucket of cash :)

Re: No Going Back
 

Dont they even pay for flights?

I'm sure A Place in the Sun actually pay for the flights and accomodation whilst the "punters" are out there... :confused:

Re: No Going Back
 

In what sense could it ever be considered good publicity, I wonder? I mean, how many of Ch4's viewers would watch it and then say - 'You know, I need some new flooring, I think I'll buy it from that guy on the TV despite the fact that they're 14,000 miles away. Who needs B&Q.'

What a load of pony.


:D

More likely to be "If we ever do go to Australia we're buying nothing from that bunch of whinging poms!!!" :D

Re: No Going Back
 

don't think they pay for anything but don't quote me on that.it just says "we don't pay a fee" and then goes on about how it's good publicity for new business and if your reading this,the no going back team can i just say how much i enjoyed your shows and will be watching your next series BUT!.........get your hands in your pockets,it's cost us about £2000 from start to finish for all the forms and fee's such as TRA,visa's,meds and then you want a show for nothing. MY ARSE :p

Hi again Professional Princess],
better photo of Gordon I have to say, where can I get this DVD about migrating petal. Would be grateful if you could give us an idea
cheers hun

Re: No Going Back
 

Its a joke that you dont get paid. Those 'A new life down under' shows are repeated over and over again on Discovery channel. The repeat fees alone must be huge.

I read somewhere that Christopher Biggins lives on the repeat fees from 'Porridge'. So why cant 'ordinary' people get a slice of the cake.

If Everyone refused to go on these shows then there'd hardly be any TV apart from soaps.

Hi there Lacey!

Do you subscribe to Outbound Publishing 'Australian News'?

Cant do it now as I should go to bed, been on here hours.

But tomorrow from work, I shall post you the details.

Take care

Sam
