Trisha (ITV1); Trisha Goddard (five); The Truth About Kate Moss (five): THE announcer who introduced her as "five's very own Trisha Goddard" was being economical with the truth.

The presenter may have switched her Jerry Springer-style agony-and-ecstasy relationships talk show to another channel, but the schedulers at ITV1 are reluctant to let her go.

Repeats of her old shows are running in the mornings on ITV, with her new show on five going out in the afternoon. If she was a guest on her own show, her appearance would be heralded by a caption on the bottom of the screen reading: "my previous employers won't let me go and ruined my career".

The clash isn't as bad as it might have been. The day I dipped into Trisha, the show was running along the familiar lines of "mum, you've gambled £300,000! And it's cost you your family" and "fiance, stop the violence - I'm not a cheat".

On Trisha Goddard, the presenter had a more glamorous hair-do and was reuniting people. We met her brand-new reunion team, who are at the end of a phonecall, text or email waiting to bring together family members, workmates and schoolfriends who've lost touch.

Shirley, 27, had three children, a former drug problem and found her dad on the Internet. They hadn't met. She must have been the only person in the studio who didn't realise that her father would be brought on at the end of the programme.

Trisha, playing the social worker, told Shirley that they'd looked through her notes and decided it was time for the reunion. They did seem pleased to see each other.

There was no happy ever after for Big Brother housemate Jason (you remember, the Scottish one with the muscles who spent much lot of time preening himself). As a result of his time in the house, his biological mother contacted him.

They met but that was the end of the matter. He felt more loyalty to his adopted mother than Jane, whom he regarded as "the woman who carried me for nine months" not someone who loved and raised him.

She wasn't waiting in the wings, which was just as well because Jason would probably have given her the cold shoulder.

Once you're famous, someone always emerges from your past to give away your secrets. The Truth About Kate Moss found childhood boyfriends revealing what the supermodel got up to in her teenage years as a "flat-chested, bow-legged girl from Croydon"..

How ungallant of them to recall romping under the duvet with her. They were probably grateful enough at the time. Scott, who went out with her for a year while they were at school, was the one under the duvet. Jamie recalled that she talked about sex a lot. All agreed that her love of booze and boys began at school.

She was a "wild child" out at raves and all-night parties every weekend. But, I wanted to know, did she do her maths homework? We should be told.
