Too Ugly for Love? I think not!

Now if you've not already heard, there's currently a television programme airing on TLC (a channel belonging to Discovery) called 'Too Ugly For Love?'. Airing on Wednesday's at 9pm (that's tonight folks), the programme focuses on singles with a physical affliction, and follows their search for love! What you may or may not know is that one of the people being followed is Alopecia UK Charity Manager Jen; Jen spent a few months last year being followed by video cameras as they tracked her progress in dating and her need to 'overcome' her fear of dating with Alopecia...

Starting at the beginning, it is important to note that understandably not everyone likes the title of the show. Dubbed by many as controversial, it's amazing just how important a question mark can be! In fact, following the trailers for the programme, many took to Twitter to express their disgust at the title. Cue the first episode however and the tide turned... comments switched from disgust at the TV company for selecting such a title, to unanimous support for the gorgeous ladies and gents included! It was absolutely lovely to see!

Now anyone who has met Jen will be right to tell you her fears are unfounded! She is absolutely stunning and to top it off has the longest legs ever! She's incredibly gorgeous and despite her own fears about dating, any man would be lucky to have her!

The first episode, which aired on Wednesday 14th January followed Jen as she embarked on her first date! The next one (today - 21st January) sees the story unfold and you'll also get a peak at some of 'the making of' our calendar! It truly is a must see!

For those of you interested in finding out more about the show and Jen's experience, we suggest you give this news article on the Alopecia UK website a read! For those of you who want to give it a watch, you can check it out on TLC which can be found on the following channels: Sky 125, Virgin 167, BT TV 413 & Talk Talk 413.

In the meantime, here's some of pictures from the programme...
