Activist Wife Swap

Swapping your activist Wife!

Activist Wife Swap tonight 9pm Channel 4

Undercurrents has been involved in setting up a Channel 4 wife swap senario.
Tonight at 9pm you can decide if getting our hands dirty with mainstream 'reality' TV was worth it.
We negoitated an activist couple, Larch and Emily from Swansea to take part in the high rating Wife Swap series.
In the programme we engineered events to highlight issues such as aviation and climate change, eco-living , destructive power of Tv on kids and much more.

Undercurrents had no control over the filming nor the editing process so you can join us in deciding if the issues get across to a wider sceptical public.

Tune in tonight at 9pm on Channel 4 and email us tomorrow on  wifeswap@undercurrents.org with your comments.
