		For those of you (the lucky ones) unfamiliar with it, Footballers' Wive$ supposedly holds a mirror up to the lives of the young, dumb and full of, erm, cash players of a top flight club, with particular focus on their trophy wives and all the sordid things they get up to in their mock-Tudor mansions.
		Not only is she famous in her own right (though quite what for we can't really remember), but she manages to keep on hitting the headlines even when she's hundreds of miles away from her hubby, as she has proved with her never-ending, rarely-skiing ski trip to Baqueira in the Pyrenees with the children.
		But, of course, the Wives are only one part of the TV show, and would be nothing without their dumb, testosterone-fuelled hubbies, who get up to all sorts of nonsense.
