Newport is the first thing the English see when they come over the bridge. It's specially designed so they do a U turn and put the £6 bridge fee down as a narrow escape therefore keeping the good bits free for the rest of us.

It's a bit like a reverse Kijŏng-dong to dissuade would be defectors.

Yeh. Bit of an embrarrassment is Newport.

Can't beat this for a spot of sophistication!!!

Bay end? Fu<k, I quite liked the bay of an evening.

Yep. No 109 which looks like its opposite the old Natwest bank. Scruffy Bute Street bit mind not the posh Mermaid Quay bit.

Just hope they told them not to walk home down Bute St after a night out in the city centre. Not the best idea. Bit dodgy.

MTV.

Yep, they set them up in a flat on Bute Rd. Down the bottom end....

The other half is welsh and I'm sure we'll catch it on iplayer or equivalent.

I missed this one. Which channel was it on?

Where did they take them to? Not Cardiff surely as it's brimmed with troglodites every friday/sat night.

Was Tea-cosy Pete on it?

I missed this thankfully.

My son and his girlfriend auditioned for it () and almost got on it ()

Luckilly they weren't successfull which may have had something to do with them both signing NDAs and then his girlfriend pasting everything all over her Facebook page (not bright that one).

If they'd got on, I may have had to emigrate back over the bridge.

Valleys people placed in the big city. Although I dont think they're all from the valleys apparently (i.e. bridgend and swansea which aint the valleys).

Programme seemed to make a big deal of it being a huge difference in the big city though. As if it was two different worlds and not 20 mins on the train and £3.50.

Also, what was this about sending them back up the M4 to the valleys? Since when does the M4 go up the Valleys - it runs West/East!!!!!

The club owner fella really pissed me off. He was saying he would change their life for them. Yeah right, handing out flyers for some wanky club. (because of this attitude)

But would any of them pass the MTT test?

I got confused with the advertising, are they country bumpkins placed in the big city, or are the just c**ts placed in the Valleys?
