Different Like Me

Comedian Jon Richardson is a self-confessed creature of habit. He makes endless lists, alphabetises his DVDs, has strict rules for using a public loo and is dogmatic on how cutlery should be arranged. But is he alone in his obsessions and rituals? Or, behind closed doors, does everyone have hidden habits? Is being freaky actually the norm? Richardson uncovers and celebrates the astounding breadth of Britain's weird and wonderful personal habits and reveals just how widespread they really are. From a dance instructor who can't keep her hands off other people's spots to a man who cleans his car for up to ten hours a day; from a teacher who sucks her thumb to the man who wears a brand new pair of pants every day - Jon introduces people with the strangest habits in Britain. Or are they? A poll reveals that these people's habits are more normal than they might seem. In a special booth the nation is quizzed about the hidden habits in their everyday lives - from which toilet cubicle they use to which bit of the roast dinner they eat first; from how they organise their wardrobes to what they do at night before going to sleep.
