Can anyone say crap............... .


This programme is probably one of the biggest pieces of crap shown on TV in history. Watch this, and see a lot of stereotypes and bad themes going on. This programme wouldn't encourage people to loose weight, it would depress them enough to want to eat MORE. ITV, what were you thinking!?!?!

I agree with the above poster. Fat Friends isn't just about losing weight...it's about the lives of the group of slimmers. And a brilliant programme it was too - Alison Steadman is a national treasure and her portrayal of Betty was spectacular, especially during the storyline where she found the son she gave up for adoption.

I really love this show! I've only been able to purchase the 1st Season's DVD on Region 1, and I'm dying trying to figure out how to see the rest of the series!
