Bandwagons host and Love Island expert Fionnuala Jones joins Alan and Jeanne to analyse 2010's Christmas Cupid, the heartwarming tale of a heartless career woman who gets visited by the ghost of her dead client and the ghosts of boyfriends past, present, and future. Will she turn her life around AND pull off the party of the Christmas season AND reconnect with the boyfriend she left behind for her career? Only maybe because this is an ABC Family movie, not Hallmark or Lifetime so anything can happen. We also talk about selling your books and buying gold, and how Groupon destroys restaurants.
Christmas Cupid stars Christina Milian, Ashley Benson, and Chad Michael Murray, was written by Aury Wallington, and directed by Gil Junger.
Our chosen charity for this episode is Inner City Helping Homeless which is a 100% volunteer run organisation that provides services to people in homeless situations.
