It is my understanding that an Endemol UK/Brighter Pictures series about the lives of supersized fat people will begin airing soon in the UK, possibly even this weekend. I hope those of you who get to see it will come back here and report their opinions of what you've seen. If you'll recall, they came here last year and asked for help in getting people involved, but after the BBC Gina Varney debacle, most were reluctant to do so.
The series is entitled LARGER THAN LIFE, and one of the segments, entitled BIG LOVE, will feature Teighlor. Another segment (don't know the name of it) will feature Lexi of FatFantasy.net fame. They each have contracts that state they will not be held up to shame or ridicule, but are still leery.
We've given them the rights to use clips from some of Bountiful's videos, too, so we're eager to learn how they were used and whether we were given the promised credit. They've also agreed to send us a copy of the program within five days of its airing, but I don't know how good their post-production department is at following up on such things.
For that reason, therefore, and obvious other ones, I sincerely hope we'll hear from many of you. They've already sold the rights for it to be aired in other countries, and it may be coming to the U.S., so it's important that we stay on top of this. Maybe they'll even make up for the scam pulled by the BBC, but only time will tell. It's not that easy to sue somebody when they're in a different country...~Bountifully, Fuchsia
