Scotland's No1 Male Barbie - Snog, Marry, Avoid? - BBC Three


In the pursuit of 'natural beauty', 2 years ago the BBC devised a programme called 'Snog, Marry, Avoid', which has subsequently garnered cult viewing.  It presents itself as the world's first make under show, which sees POD - Personal Overhaul Device - transform OTT girls and boys into natural beauties. Before and after each make under, the public votes as to whether they would rather snog, marry or avoid POD's willing victims. While the 'victims' are often ridiculed for their excessive use of make up and dress sense, I think it is time such inventiveness was applauded and rewarded. Seen in this context, natural is definitely overrated.

  2. I know, scary scary. Who DOES do the styling for the make unders? They should be shot.

    I love the fact that in the most recent series, more and more people are opting to go back to their original selves. POD's good, but not that good!
