[Romantic Old Bird]

This is very sad for Helen, she has often said it's her dream job. There was no inkling of her knowing the show was to end in the Hello article.

I hope this hasn't left them in the lurch with their mortgage. OH was right after all when he kept saying that they ought to use her money and transient fame to launch a hairdresser's business.

Maybe there will be something else in the offing for her, but much as I would like it, I have to admit I'm not too hopeful.

On the other hand, I have to admit the show was pretty dire. They made very bad use of Helen's talents, and seemed to keep throwing in more and more people. This just resulted in less engagement and bonding with all the characters.

Whatever, it will be very sad not to see Helen's cheery little face, and listen out for snippets of Paul Clarke information.

Let's hope it all turns out OK for them both. Fingers crossed!
