Shannon Matthews - The family story (thurs channel 4)?

Isn't it a bit soon to be doing a behind the scenes documentary of what the family were doing and going through, when she's not even home yet ?

I've just seen the advertisement for it and I'm a bit stunned really ...... what do you think ?

Update:

It's kind of leaving a sour taste in my mouth !!

    I think, maybe, although I agree with you, maybe, just maybe if we know the background etc - we won't be so quick to judge

    You can't act big black bags under your eyes! Even if the mother was in on it - the father wouldn't have been and he looked just as run down.

    You are all just being mean and that boils down to one thing - the fact that they are from a council estate!!

    Who cares - and if they are cashing in on it - what about the people who are prepared to pay!!! They may be making money from it to benefit their child who will be scarred form her experience for the rest of her life!

    Also talking of making money the McCanns are the ones making the most and nobody is complaining of that!

    I will have the remote at the ready when it comes on. So much rubbish and junk on our TV's that I think the makers of these programmes are also from disadvantaged backgrounds.

    Way to soon you are right...in fact it ought never to be aired in the first place.

    This means they must have been filming before Shannon was even found!! That is disturbing to say the least.

    My gut reaction to all this has always been that something was a little bit off, I don't know what but just something.

    Hmmm....funny that. The whole business doesn't ring true but I must say that I haven't been following up the story.

    Obviously the press and TV media has opened up a new world for them...I'll watch and make up my mind later.

    they have to make money now but find it odd and aslo feel for the girl herself going back to that one day!! She is most likey having the best time now.

    I smell a rat and hope they do not make money from it I would just be so glad my daughter was safe and would want things back to normal asap.

    I think the community should benefit they work their socks off for her good spirit give them something back I say.

    It will be only speculation so do not watch that is just another trash story and if you watch this sort of rubbish you encourage the cheapest sort of TV.
