Razor Burns
One was former Millwall player, the other a gender-bending eighties popster. I guess the producers of Celebrity Wife Swap expected the sparks to fly when they threw Neil "Razor" Ruddock and Pete Burns together, but what emerged was a bit of a love-in.
I watched because I kinda admire Pete Burns, despite the fact he doesn't identify himself as a transvestite. I admire him for going all out to look how he wants, even though it's far further than I'd go myself.
What was billed as car-crash telly was actually quite gentle, even if it was as if a hackneyed sitcom writer had scripted it so everyone went on a "journey" and "learnt something about themselves". The slobbish husband revealed his gentle side, the ex glamour-model wife found a new confidence, and helped Pete's photographer husband find his, and bar some rather forced bitching everyone seemed to get on like a house on fire. It was all pretty heartwarming.
Watch it on 4oD while you can, it's not bad.
