But it would cost too much (mainly because of the celebrity's salary
demands probably).


Hasn't most of the discussion about this being saying that a "celebrity"
is the last person wanted or needed to front the show. What is needed is
some one vaguely presentable and who can talk knowledgeably and
articulately about their favorite subject whilst getting their hands
dirty.


But, as soon as you appear on the tele more than once, you become a
celeb, whether you like it or not. People come up to you in the
supermarket or punch you in night clubs. So you have to move to a gated
community with the other celebs, and must be paid accordingly. You can't
win!
