So, you all remember the show where Nicky Hambelton Jones would take a woman onto the street, have strangers guess her age, then "improve" things by means of surgery/dentistry/hairdressing?
How would you improve this show?
1) Get Myleene Klass to present it
2) Get *two* women each week, do this thing to both, and whoever has "lost" the most years off her visible age is the WINNER!
The current presenter, 37-year-old Nicky Hambleton-Jones, is quoted as saying that being replaced by the former HearSay singer is a "slap in the face". Makeover artists Trinny and Susannah have also told Newsbeat they were shocked bosses had picked a younger woman to front the show.
"The list is getting longer," said Myleene. "I thought it was just Nicky... I didnt know it was Trinny and Susannah too."
But the 30-year-old mum-of-one is brushing off the comments.
"I dont think this is a question of age. I think its actually just a case of I was offered the job and it was a perfect opportunity to take it.
"I dont see the argument where someone was dropped because of age, if I am completely honest."
The classical pianist said she wasnt hurt by what other presenters have said in the press because there are bigger issues at hand.
"Its like, "Come on girls. Lets stick together". There are enough people who want to bring us all down."

I hated that show SOOOO f*cking much. What are they gonna do next, get a 20 year old woman in to present it, and then give prizes to the person who can look the most like a 10 year old?
FUCK. OFF.

Apparently, one's going to go the surgery route, the other going the homeopathy and "Natural" route (including acupuncture).
Just to show beauty comes from inside. Which is why they've got Myleene, presumably.

I've just opened a packet of McCoy's Flame Grilled Steak Crisps. Myleene Klass was not in attendance to open it on my behalf. I'm lodging a formal complaint against her agent in light of this totally unprofessional behaviour.

Not a patch on Winifred Atwell, that's for sure.

This is that programme where they took that guy who looked like Peter Stringfellow and after some plastic surgery he looked like PS's embalmed corpse...
