Is it comedy?

Is it real?

Ive no idea..

I might turn over. It's got to be funnier than the Mock the Week clip show.

Is it a dude?

Is it a dudette?

I'm watching.

Some people are genuinely stuck in a rut and cannot find work but there are those who duck and dive to avoid it.

Was shocked to just hear one of the women has £75 k of debt! How many credit cards has she got?!

I find it amusing that they are more worried about having the top package Sky and internet deal than getting out of debt!

Its shot like The Office or the Fat Busters thing from Little Britian.

Its got to be a joke.

Or the job seekers thing from League of Gentlemen!

DOLE SCUM!

Asda Smart Price or Birdseye. You get that choice.

no way is this real.

im looking for Chris Morris in the credits

The course leader is irritating.

wow!

I dont know what to think.

watch it 4od Townend,and tell me if you think its real... ???

i came on here to post about the very same thing!

All those ppl are real... im not sure about the group leader though... "have you had a drink this morning" id have to punch her!

There's one of these job training course things which runs in the building opposite Reading train station. I was studying at a private tuition course on the 6th floor, but the first floor was for the unemployed dossers.

Massive generalisation but I never saw one that was employable. They'd be drinking outside in the morning, smoking weed in their breaks, shouting at each other. Think the rude boy kids who hang around on corners/outside shops but a fair number of years older and this is what you get.

I'll have to watch it but I reckon it's probably real.

I only caught a few mins here and there, but I don't think it was the scumminess of the unemployed people which made it look fake.

It was a combianation of things.

The woman who lived in a mansion who owned the company that was training them..that cant have been real,no way.

When they were in the Pub they were all eating Pies.

2 weeks unpaid training in Poundland!!

Ive not got to that bit yet, im watching it on +1 with my full sky package

Its on again and I still cant decide if its real or parody.

Its simple just force these work shy turds to join the Army.

The benefit culture created in this country makes it too easy.

They've all got sky TV aswell i've noticed. :D

... on land mine clearing duty - "just wander over there and see if you can find some", orders the officer, then backing away and putting his fingers in his ears

I wouldn't go so far as to blow them up (imagine the clean up costs), but people should certainly have to work for the local authority while claiming unemployment benefit.  This in turn would save a small chunk of council tax money for everyone.  The range of work they could do would surely benefit every town - while many will no doubt only be usefull for basic manual jobs around town, plenty of people in professions etc end up without work at times.
