I suspect the new gameshow Unbreakable (BBC One) is part of the broadcaster’s charitable endeavours. I think the call went out that work for six celebrity couples in greatest need of employment – perhaps after receipt of the estimate for their new monthly gas bill – was available and that the first to respond would get the gig.
That is the best explanation for what we have before us, and the one we should cleave to in order to preserve the sense of Reithian ideals being upheld and the illusion of dignity upon which civilisation depends.
