Wife Swap , the BAFTA-award winning hit series, is back starting with a celebrity swap. Notorious comedian Freddie Starr and his wife and manager Donna swap places with Page 3 pin-up Sam Fox and her partner and manager of eight years, Myra Stratton.
Freddie Starr captivated the nation in the 70s and 80s with his zany humour. After becoming infamous for his hell-raising hamster eating exploits, Freddie has now settled down to a traditional life with his third wife Donna. While Freddie gigs, Donna is in control of the home and three children, sleeping for only a few hours each night as she tries to fit in her endless chores. Freddie firmly believes that the working man needs to be looked after, and his doting wife Donna is happy to oblige.
By contrast, Sam Fox and partner her Myra Stratton devote all of their time to each other, happy sharing both their work and home commitments. Sam has a rigorous exercise regime, focused on keeping her in the spotlight. Sam might be the star on stage but at home she is more likely to be found preparing a dinner party for friends, while Myra is busy managing the hectic international schedule of her other half. How will Sam cope left holding the baby while Freddie waits for his tea to be delivered to his armchair, and what will Donna think when she steps into Sam’s shoes, experiencing a life without children and chores?
