I did enjoy it even though its difficult to see how it will work other than for one off contracts. There was more than the Mrs Overall about some of it.

I agree Ana that it was a little patronising in places but it was good to see at the end that a few of them had gained confidence and were now either self employed or volunteering which I believe was the aim.

I half-watched it. I'm afraid I found it rather patronising in places and am not sure what the point of the exercise was, although most of the participants obviously enjoyed it!

Anyone else watch this ? She started up an agency for retirees wanting to work. Last nights episode was about a group who were hired to fill a catering contract. I had to smile at the 91yr old who thought the fridge was an oven.
