Trinny and Susannah's breast-baring programme upsets viewers

tsundress.jpgBless Trinny and Susannah! Love 'em or hate 'em you can't deny that the ladies really do try to dress us properly. And as much as it may have cringed me to see hundreds of women throw their old bras into the air and squeal on Wednesday's Trinny and Susannah Undress The Nation programme, their intentions are sincere. However, it seems that others don't quite share my view...

Following this week's episode, ITV was bombarded with complaints over the screening of women baring their breasts, before the 9pm time slot, as part of Trinny and Susannah's mission to encourage them to get properly measured for bras. The programme highlighted how many women still wear ill-fitting bras and also featured Trinny wearing prosthetic breasts as a way of deterring smaller-breasted women from undergoing plastic surgery. They looked scarily real, let me tell you!

Family groups have condemned the TV show by claiming that it goes against broadcasting guidelines. While watchdog Ofcom says that nudity before 9pm must be "justified by the context".

"This is prime-time family viewing. I switched on with young children present and was deeply disturbed by the level of nudity at that time," said one viewer.

Bah! They're just boobs... we've all got them... well, us who are women anyway, and even young children tend to know they exist. Fact!

Even so, this isn't the first time that Trinny and Susannah have pissed off the public for their unusual methods. Dollymix reported on the outcry which followed their book The Body Shape Bible, in which the duo created a new set of body shapes for women.

    I agree with Steph, I have seen much worse on "family beaches" and well before 9pm, let me tell you! I love Trinny & Susannah, they really seem to make a difference to people lives and seeing naked breasts at a young age will not exactly scar you for life because you will see them (or grow them!) eventually. If you don't like it, don't watch it!

    My god, they're just breasts! There was absolutely nothing titillating (!) about the programme at all. It is possible in this modern world full of technology to just CHANGE THE CHANNELL!! Grr. I thought the show was ace, myself.
