Alex was plainly hoping the two would fall in love and be Married At First Sight, but even she couldn't cram that extra filling into her quilt cover. 'I'm gonna give him the biggest cwtch of all time,' she promised. Lily Allen (right), the jaded and rebellious sister of Trish (Freema Agyeman, left), proved what we already knew, that she's good at playing characters with attitude and a sneerīeautician Tegan suffered burns from the 420-volt electric rail - 'like a cramp in your leg, but in your whole body.' The rubber soles on her boots saved her from a fatal shock, but if 31-year-old Anthony Smith from Australia hadn't grabbed her, she would have been hit by the incoming train.īy the time she knew what was happening, Anthony was gone. Last July, she slipped on the platform at King's Cross tube station, and had to be pulled to safety from the tracks by a stranger. The concept had to be stretched for the most interesting story, since 22-year-old Tegan Badham was there to meet a man who featured in her past for just a few seconds. Another man and his wife came to meet the brother he never knew he had. One couple brought their children to thank the volunteer builders who helped them convert their bathroom after their daughter was born with a painful skin condition. It took bits from Long Lost Family, from DIY SOS and from hotel reality documentaries, and stuffed them all together into a giant pillow case. Her tagline was intriguing: 'If you had the chance to meet someone from your past, who would it be?'īut the format is an uneven hodge-podge, like a badly wrapped quilt. The duvet hack was just an extra, a bit of 20-tog filler in Alex's show bringing people together at a boutique hotel in North Wales for an emotional meeting. In the TikTok era, tucking in a blanket seems as medieval as sleeping on straw with a pig for warmth. So much easier, so much cheaper, and so old-fashioned. an innovative way of getting yourself in a knot as you struggle to put a quilt into a coverīefore the internet existed, we had sheets and blankets. Alex Jones's Reunion Hotel (BBC2, and BBC1 Wales) supplied a prime example of the hopeless hack, the duvet sausage.
