In
the summer of 2012, there was a lot of advertisement and hype about a Brummie
version of reality show the Only Way is Essex that was due out soon. Billboards
and buses were plastered with posters and trailers were made viral. Many people
from Birmingham (The Only Way Is Essex fans) got excited about this new series
being based in their home town.
However,
the “show” was a nothing more than a stunt to mark the founding of a new
super-college in Birmingham.
Below
is a link to the trailer:
