The premise

Here’s the bit.

A promo for a sensitive-sounding Five documentary series introduces Tina Edwards, a cheerful woman born with a second head that loathes her. As Tina does her make-up and sits smiling for the camera, the scowling head beside her mocks how old she looks; a trip to the corner shop ends with it tacking an insult onto her polite thanks, and a quiet drink at the pub only gives it a new audience. The unseen narrator promises an intimate look at her struggles at home and at work, then admits viewers will only half-listen to her problems while hoping for plenty of footage of the second head losing its temper. The trailer ends on a Five caption as the head snaps one last insult, with the programme scheduled between the news and the gambling.

Highly quotable.

A little extra

Notes from the archive.

David Mitchell voices the unseen narrator. This is the second of three Sensitive Freakshows trailers in Series 2, after the boy with an arse for a face (Episode 1) and before the man with 19 penises (Episode 3).
