I have written before about this show. Im an american and i can't believe some of the things you allow ppl to get away with on this show. Like the episode i just saw where this lady did not want to be a surrogate mother after all, hearing what the family has done, yes we all have a past but then she runs into the granmother on the street and she tries to stop her, she takes the keys on the car, now come on, why is it that this person get away with everything, cause it dosen't happen in real life! and the way kids talk back to their parents on the show, the head teacher's son aloow bad ppl in their home and take things, a grown man, no two of them living with their mother while she tried to get on with her marriage. Who writed this stuff?? Not to mention the Dingles who just just about get away with everything and do as they plz. It's horrible this show and you need some different writers for this show cause from what i see it's a bit far fecthed!! Im really going to stop watching it now, terrible show!!
