Dogs on the Dole
2015
Takes a light-hearted look into the world of dog ownership on Britain's housing estates. There are 8.5 million dogs in Britain. Once simply man's best friend, now we know them as designer dogs, dangerous dogs and dinky dogs. Whatever the breed, dogs have become the pet of choice across the UK. The rise of dogs as status symbols and the trading of puppies from back yard breeding to feed this demand has led to the number of strays on the streets of Britain rising from 97,000 in the mid noughties to over 110,000 this year. In areas where money is tight the number of strays goes up - with the North East seeing the highest proportion of abandoned dogs in the country. As fads and fashions change, dogs that get abandoned find themselves at the mercy of the local authorities and last year nearly 9000 of these stray dogs were put to sleep.Teens

The first two editions featured established double acts; the final edition was presented solely by Lenny Henry, and also notably featured an entirely different set from the first two editions. The shows that were broadcast are: ⁕Lucas and Walliams' Perfect Night In followed by Stand By Me ⁕Frost and Pegg's Perfect Night In followed by a double bill of Spaced ⁕Lenny Henry's Perfect Night In followed by High AnxietyDumped

Dumped
2007
Dumped is a British reality television programme which started on 2 September 2007 and aired nightly until 5 September 2007 on Channel 4. It involved 11 contestants living for three weeks on a rubbish dump next to a landfill site near Croydon, Surrey. The contestants who "survived" the 21 days and used only what they found on the dump were awarded £20,000 to share equally between them. The working title of the programme was Eco-Challenge. One contestant, Darren Lumsden, voluntarily left the programme on Day 3. The series was promoted with a large publicity campaign, which included advertisements on websites and a concert by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. The programme achieved a peak of 2.4 million viewers, although this was marginally less than the number of people watching other channels at the same time. The programme was criticised because it was filmed on an artificial landfill and for its choice of "fame hungry" contestants.Go Back To Where You Came From
