3 programmes, starting tomorrow on ITV1 with Prostitution then the Benefits Culture and then Truants.
Should be good viewing, I enjoyed her Tonight special versus The Hoodies.

It's all very well being 'tough' on crime, but she's also got Draconian views on anything slightly different.
Gay people, cyclists. Anything's a target for the bitter old cow.
You sound a very bitter disrespectful person by making an extremely personal attack on Anne Widdecombe by calling her what you did. Its down to people like you that this country is in a mess, afraid to do anything - ie: cowards.
This thread was about prostitutes and crime - not gay people and cyclists! You obviously can't understand the basic thread. Maybe its just strong women in general you don't like? Thank god she's where she is and you aren't.
The problem with prostitution is that it is out on the streets, blighting those areas, not safe in licensed brothels. Better to regulate than criminalise in my view (as with drugs).
You have the supply and demand thing backwards. If there was no demand for prostitutes, they could not work for cash to "fuel their addictions". Then maybe they'd be mugging or worse instead to buy drugs. At least prostitution is a legal and consensual way of earning cash, mugging and dealing isn't.
Anne Widdicombe is good entertainment value, but some of her views are very extreme and her solutions over-simplistic.
Seriously though - I'm looking forward to watching this.
i LOVE anne! shes great...
this country needs an "innocence revolution" she picks out on the filth and grime on the streets and shows it for what it is!
From the wording of your post, I got this image of Ann in a peephole bra and suspenders, standing under a lamp-post.
Anne widdecombe versus Prostitution
Pools panel verdict: Away win.
Didn't she do an agony aunt show - that was a bit painful from memory, but versus the hoodies she was good.
Give her the teatime slot ITV. Ann sings Copa Cobana lovely stuff ! She's so hot now she's a blondina (joke people, joke :eek: ) PS wouldn't it be good if she investigated this from the inside, it would be like when Tyne Daly went undercover in Cagney and Lacey
Anne Widdecombe vs The hairdresser
To be honest, it seems to be more of a love-in for big Anne and her unique brand of vigilante justice.:D
There's always some right-wing sanctimonious prat kicking about ready to set the world to rights, but when you actually give them power they do the same as anyone else, bugger all.
TBH the thread is about a TV programme presented by AW, therefore any discussion of said presenter is to be expected. On that basis I suggest it is you who does not understnd the thread. By the very nature of discussion there will be people who have opinions that differ from yours and you have accept this. If you can't then I suggest you do not frequent these boards (particularly showbiz) because they're full of threads were people enjoy exchanging views and opinions. As for AW it perfectly acceptable to have issues with this lady as some of her opinions and ideas are draconian in nature and certainly do not deal with certain aspects of society and it's structures with much sympathy or respect.
Absolutely! Anne and Mo Molam was another formidable woman; they had more courage and balls between them that our male Prime Ministers put together. They'd make Britain great again.
You obviously didn't read my message properly. I was criticising someone on here for making a personal attack on Anne Widdecombe. I find calling her a "bitter old cow" deeply disrespectful and ignorant. If you don't like somebody for their views thats fair enough, but to make a personal attack like the person did on here shows their ignorance. Funny though, but its always the "lefties" who come out with these ignorant and disprespectful views. Thank god theyre in the minority!
So just because I don't like her I have a complex about strong women? Wrong! I admire strong women. I respect the fact Widdecombe has principles, but I disagree with her on all of them and would say the exact same about any man like her.
