Tonights programme was all about counterfeit goods. Made me chuckle as 30 odd years ago I used to buy watches (not famous brands, just cheapos) from the area around Cheetham Hill, Manchester (where most of it was filmed) and resell them. I guess I realised they were not legit, because of the price, and I would have never bought any electrical items... so apologies for my youthful indiscretion. To the point... part of the programme concerned e-cigs... and the cheap chargers available, causing a house fire for the person in the show. To be fair, they concluded that e-cigs were not at fault, and If the correct charger is purchased there should be no problem. Thought it was going to be a 'hatchet' job but they emphasised that it was solely due to a counterfeit charger. Jeremy Kyle has gone up 2 points in my estimation, but that still only makes him 2 out of 10.  |
