Having seen this programme I would say it is entirely legit.

My slight worry Joanne was that the ad, rather than the programme, might be a cyber-hoax. But having exchanged e-mails with the organisers, it is clear that it is entirely legit.

Oh I see Stuart.

I know in the past they have turned a ballet dancer into a nightclub bouncer and a soldier into a drag queen!
