Look out TOWIE, move over Made in Chelsea, the BBC is jumping on the reality TV show bandwagon. The licence fee is being well spent on a copycat show based in, er, Coventry, according to the Daily Mirror. Sent to Coventry, which is being made by Big Brother maker Endemol, is a "semi-scripted" show that promises to be more "Jobcentre and boozer" than "boob job and wine bar". Apparently it will be "much more real than its rivals". Not much of a stretch there then. Scrooge-like BBC1 PR Sam Hodges has subsequently poured cold water on the story on Twitter. Bah humbug.
