Secret Eaters on RTÉ2 – August 30th at 20.00
Series 2, Episode 8 – Final in Series
This week, sisters Precious and Florence from Sidcup are under the Secret Eaters’ spotlight.
Gym bunny Precious works out every day and insists she eats healthily whilst elder sister Florence cooks everything from scratch and would rather eat her own food than touch a takeaway. So why are they both putting on weight? They’re convinced they’re making the right choices with their food, but Florence’s mega-carb portion sizes, Precious’s love of a treat and both sisters’ devotion to fast food seem to suggest otherwise.
Once they learn the shocking truth of what they’re really eating, will these sisters be able to stick to a healthy eating plan, start winning their fight with the flab and look forward to a healthier future?
And when it comes to eating, once we pop most of us can’t stop. So in this episode our secret cameras won’t just be concentrating on Precious and Florence’s dietary downfalls, we’ll also be laying mischievous and tasty traps for the public proving just how easy it is for us ALL to succumb to secret eating.
Series Overview
Britain has a big, fat problem. Only America is getting fatter than we are faster than we are.
Though a nation obsessed with our waistlines, for many people huge weight gain is a complete mystery. How are we putting weight on when we’re convinced we live on salad and sparkling water? This series proves just how many of us are in denial about what we eat and hide the extent of our eating from our families and ourselves. For many there is a huge gap between the muesli we admit to and the chicken tikka we eat when the lights are down.
Secret Eaters is back for a second series. Presented by Anna Richardson, the show goes undercover across the UK to find out the truth about how much we really eat. Each week one household – couples, friends or siblings – are put under 24-hour surveillance to discover if they are Secret Eaters.
Using fixed cameras installed inside their home and Private Investigators to track them outside of it; at work, rest or play our cameras will be watching.
All the evidence will be revealed in the Secret Eaters’ Incident Room. Here, each couple will be confronted with the shocking reality of their diet because if you want to lose weight, you really need to know the truth about how you’re putting it on.
