Lissy Summers and Abbie Goodwin Snog Marry Avoid?

Welcome to the dark side.

Hands up who thinks they're a natural beauty.

Nope, not enough of you. Here on Snog Marry Avoid?,

it's our mission to convince you make-up madams

to lay down your weapons in a fight against fakery.

So sling the slap, hide those hideous hair pieces

and tone down the tan,

cos it's time to embrace the gorgeous, natural you.

Welcome to the fabulous fake-free world of the make-under.

-POD SNORES

-Hello, POD.

-SNORING CONTINUES

-POD?

The lights appear to be on but there's no-one home.

Oh, sorry, Frost, I was just de-fragging my hard drive.

Ooh, that sounds painful.

Are you rebooted and raring to go?

Absolutely. And may I say you are looking particularly lovely today?

You may, but what are you after?

Well, I was thinking about an upgrade and I was hoping you might be able to put in a good word for me.

Hmm, we'll see how it goes with today's fans of fakery.

I think they're going to present quite a challenge.

-So shall we get started?

-Affirmative.

Coming up on tonight's show, POD slugs it out in the ring with a slap addict who packs a punch.

You ain't gonna change me so I'm ready for a fight.

We meet the girl who keeps abreast of her fakery

by showing off all her best assets.

Whether it's good or bad, I don't care as long, as they notice me.

And POD has a close encounter of the unusual kind.

It's time to rock and roll, POD.

Let's get it on!

Jenny, POD is raring to go.

I hope you've got a challenge for me.

Well, let's just say it doesn't take this girl too long to get dressed in the morning.

Hi, I'm Lissy, I'm a full-time model and I'm from London.

I probably admire most of all myself because I get up

every day in the morning and think hmm, yeah, I look good.

Less on the clothing front is definitely more,

especially when you've got like, an OK body like me.

Bikini tops I wear out quite a lot because I've got a really flat stomach so I like to show that off.

I like to make people go, wow.

# Wow, wow, wow, wow. #

Whether it's good or bad, I don't care, as long as they notice me.

Some people don't like it.

When people call me like, really nasty names,

I just go back home, slap on more tan and annoy them even more. Woo!

I absolutely love faking myself up because I always think the fake is the best.

I have like little individual buttons that click the individual hair in.

Everything, you name it, I do it. Hair, teeth,

Botox, tan. I probably spend well over a grand a month.

I don't think I look orange enough.

OK, it's tanning time.

Normally I use about two of these.

It looks great.

Never do it near a cream sofa at home, people, it's not a good idea!

My friends and family think my look is a bit too fake

but I know they want to look like me and if they had the figure

I have, they definitely would wear it.

Hey, POD, it's Lissy here. This is perfection.

Try and change it if you dare.

-Hello, Lissy, how are you today?

-Hi. I'm good, thank you.

-Talk me through this outfit.

Is this what you'd wear for a night out?

Probably a bit less for a night out, to be honest with you.

-Why not?

-This look looks a little high maintenance. Can you tell me what is fake?

Hair extensions, got clip-in and bonds,

hair colour, eyebrows tint, eyelash tint, eyelashes, sometimes contact lenses, obviously make-up,

-Botox, nose, tan, boobs, toenails, nails...

-Lips?

Might have had a little bit of help there.

-How much have you spent to look like this?

-Probably over 50 grand.

What?! So why are you going to see POD today?

Because my mum says I'll never meet the right kind of guy dressed like this.

I'll meet Mr Right Now but not Mr Right,

so I'm going to give it a whirl and see what happens.

Right, Lissy, I'm going to wish you good luck in POD, I'll see you on the other side.

I am POD, the personal overhaul device.

-Who are you?

-Hi, POD, I am Lissy.

You've got to be kidding. Where's the rest of your outfit?

I think my look says, come and get me, I'm fun.

More like, come and get me with a jacket, a straightjacket.

Are you anything else other than fun?

No, I... Yes, I'm everything else.

I'm fun, I'm intellectual, I'm caring, I'm sharing,

I'm down to earth, I'm bubbly, a regular kind of gal.

And modest and ridiculous.

I'm not ridiculous, I look hot!

So hot you need to wear a bikini?

BOING! BOING!

Are you allergic to clothes?

Well, I like some clothes, just not the ones that cover me all up.

Or cover you at all. Surely you don't think this is a classy look?

Yes, I am classy. I think I am classy.

I might look fake and have all the bits and bobs and attachments and stuff but I think I do it well.

And what about that skin tone?

I've seen that on a chest before, a chest of drawers.

In fact, I think I could tell you the exact colour.

Processing data banks.

-Lissy, make like a teapot.

-OK.

Which one of the woodstain colours best matches your skin?

I would hope I was oak.

The correct answer is stripped oak.

That was a really bad joke!

And talking of bad jokes, let's see what the public make of your look.

Initiate phase one, public analysis.

OK.

We showed a picture of you dressed like this to the general public and

asked them whether they would want to snog, marry or avoid you. What do you think they said?

I'm going to go with one, snog.

Kindly do not smear my lens. Play.

Most probably avoid because, I mean, a bit of makeup is all right

on a girl but I think that's a bit too much, to be honest with you.

Definitely avoid her. She looks too dolled-up for me.

Well, they're just boring.

I would avoid that person because I don't want any of her tan

getting on my black skin and I'm dark enough already.

Honestly, that is just not right.

-Oh, yes, it is. 30% said snog...

-Yes.

..but the majority, 65%, wanted to get as far away from you as possible.

Oh, shut up, that's a fix.

Honestly. No, I'm not having that.

We also asked the general public what they thought of your style,

designer cash, high street flash or market stall trash.

Do you know if anybody said the last one,

I want their name and number because this cost a lot of money.

Let's just go for high street flash, I'll be modest on this one, OK?

-Number two.

-Play.

I think her style is market stall trash.

General public, my booty.

I'd say her style is like designer cash, definitely.

-Told you.

-I think her style is market stall trash.

-In fact, 5% of the public thought you were designer cash.

-Fair play.

30% said you were high street flash,

and a whopping 65% said you were market stall trash.

None of my ex-boyfriends have definitely not called me cheap.

-Not to your face, anyway.

-I'm not a gold digger, I just like nice things.

Are you ready for POD's verdict?

Give me your best shot.

Lissy, with your stuck-on hair and slathered-on tan,

you look like a Blackpool showgirl.

Blah-blah-blah-blah.

It's time to give you a bikini booty to natural beauty make-under.

Do your worst, POD, do your worst.

You've already done that.

Time to initiate phase two.

OK.

Deep cleanse.

-POD is now going to strip you of all your fakery.

-All of them?!

Only the detachable ones. Now, hand over your hair extensions.

POD, don't make me take my hair out.

That's not the only thing that's going to come out in a minute.

Stop bouncing and start unclipping.

I'm going to look like Harry Hill in a minute.

In that top, you look like two Harry Hills.

-Oh, good.

-And in order to bring your beauty back down to Earth,

you're going to have to get rid of those skyscraper heels.

-Oh, POD.

-Oh, come now Lissy,

it may be a step down for you, but it's a step up for natural beauty.

-Oh.

-Now, cover up.

This isn't my colour, POD.

You could have got me a pink one.

-Don't you mean oak? Now, those lashes aren't real are they?

-No they're not.

-Shocker.

-Bye-bye.

Now, Lissy, there's just one more thing and it's staring me right in the lens.

POD, you've got everything.

You can't take my slap away from me.

I'll give you a slap in a minute.

Don't just spread it around, take it off.

Disgusting.

But don't worry, it's time for your natural beauty make-under

and I'm pretty sure you're going to be made up when you see the results.

-Are you ready?

-I'm ready.

-Initiate make-under in three, two, one.

-I want to go home!

Oh, look, the hair's nice. Not a bad colour scheme. Where's my make-up?!

-What do you think of your outfit?

-My waist just looks...

There we go, that's better.

We need to get some scissors on this, chop it up a bit, make it shorter.

It hangs perfectly.

It hangs, that's one thing that's true, it's hanging.

Let's see what the general public think.

Previously, 65% said they wanted to avoid you.

Let's see what they say now.

Play.

I'd snog this girl because she looks attractive and quite a fun girl to be with.

I would snog her because she's very natural and my type.

I'd snog her, she's very good looking.

In fact, 90% said they would like to snog you.

Don't know why.

Because you're beautiful, Lissy.

They obviously caught a glimpse of these bad boys.

Here is your natural beauty data.

Using a mineralised foundation gives subtle coverage,

giving a vibrant, fresh look.

For a top heavy frame, choose a flattering halterneck.

POD agrees with the general public, this is a much better look for you.

Fair play, POD, fair play.

My work here is done. Goodbye.

Thank you. Mwah!

Waiting for me are my best friend, Aila, and her sister

and they're just going to probably start laughing at the way I look.

She's going to cry, I think she's going to cry.

Oh, you look really nice!

I thought you were going to look horrible.

It looks really nice. Instead of being Barbie you're like Posh Spice.

Yeah, I actually quite like the look, actually, yeah.

I think sometimes it's good to look natural.

Well, I think she looks great.

Lissy looked lovely but will the new look grow on her? We'll find out later.

But first here's a big kiss for all you lippy lovelies out there who have given us top lip tips.

A tip from me is exfoliating your lips with a tooth brush,

it makes them smooth.

My tip for luscious lips is to apply your lip stain

and then to just reapply a lip balm all day for luscious lips 24/7.

Run an ice cube over your lips after applying your lipstick,

it lasts longer.

My tip is to put my lip pencil in the fridge so that it doesn't melt.

Next up is a ring girl who would look a knock-out

if she could just lay off the layers of slap.

Looks like POD's in for a fight.

My name's Abbie, I'm 19 and I'm from Southend in Essex.

I'm a ring girl for the UWC and I've been doing it now for about two years.

All I have to do, really, is walk around the ring with ring boards

that say round one, round two.

I'm surrounded by gorgeous male fighters.

I wear tight clothes and ones that push your boobs up a little bit,

ones that are really short, mini dresses, sparkly, bright colours.

But as long as they're sexy and small and tight

then they're the ones that I go for.

That's what I do.

I probably do stand out in the crowd a lot

cos, obviously, I'm wearing basically nothing. Make-up box.

I think it's good to look fake.

Obviously, my hair's fake, my eyelashes are fake, my tan is fake, but everything else is real.

These are just beautiful.

I've just forgotten what it's like to actually see her looking natural.

Once she disappears in that bedroom, that's it,

she comes down a totally different girl.

Hi, POD, this is a knock out.

You are not going to change me, so I'm ready for a fight.

-Hello, Abbie.

-Hello.

-How are you today?

-Not too bad, thanks.

-You're looking very bright and neon-ey.

-Yep.

-Talk me through this outfit.

-This is my cage girl outfit.

It's quite revealing, well, really revealing.

Very bright but it stands out so that's what they need.

-Now, you're single.

-Yeah.

Do you think that you attract the wrong type of bloke dressed like this?

Yeah, I seem to go for the bad boys and they always like this look so I think if I change my look,

looked a bit more classy, then I might just find the one.

Now, define classy for me.

Um, everything covered up,

-everything covered up.

-What's this then?!

This is, yeah, this is why I'd like to change.

How are you going to feel taking your make up off on camera?

I think it will be a shock for people to see me without make-up,

but, hopefully, they'll think I'm a natural beauty.

-Hopefully.

-Do you think you're a natural beauty?

Um, I don't, personally,

but I hope POD can change my look completely and make me think otherwise.

Right, gorgeous, I'm going to wish you good luck in POD now. I'll see you later on.

I am POD, the personal overhaul device, who are you?

-My name is Abbie.

-And what do you do for a living?

-I'm a ring girl.

-What is a ring girl?

-Cage fighting.

You know, when they fight?

All I have to do is get into a ring and then hold a board up,

walk around, get back out. That's my job.

How very high-tech. Do you need many qualifications?

I don't really know, to be honest.

I don't really like cage fighting, to be honest.

And I don't like your skin tone.

Is satsuma your natural colour?

I think I don't look orange, I think I look quite brown, is the word, I think, POD.

So you're a brown girl in the ring then? La-la-la-la-la(!)

-Is your hair natural?

-Yeah.

Liar, liar, very small pants on fire.

-OK, no, it's fake.

-Why have you come to POD for a make-under?

Because I want to look a bit more classy.

-Your boobs seem to have other ideas.

-What? They're always out.

My point exactly. Dressed like that,

let's see what the public think about you in round one, public analysis.

Um, OK. I'm a bit nervous about this.

Well, you should be, as we have asked the public if they would want to snog, marry or avoid you.

-What do you think they said?

-I think I'm probably snoggable.

Play.

I'd avoid this girl, she seems too fake and a bit over the top.

-OK.

-Definitely snog this girl because she looks very pretty.

I'd avoid her. She's got too much make-up on and too much fake tan, as well.

-Looking like that, 40% wanted to avoid you and not one person wanted to marry you.

-Not even one person?

No. But hang on a minute, Abbie,

-we've also asked actor and model Philip Olivier.

-Oh, I like him.

I'd probably avoid Abbie because I've got nice white sheets

and I want them to stay that way.

Oh.

I don't like him any more.

Well, brace yourself. We also asked the general public if they thought

-you looked your age - 19 - or 27 or 30.

-Well, I'd say 19.

I'm definitely not older than that.

Play.

30. She looks about 30.

27?

30. I think she's 30.

In fact, 80% thought you were at least eight years older than you are.

-Oh, my God.

-Speaking of which, are you ready to hear POD's verdict?

Yes, go on then, POD.

Abbie, under all that slap, you have the potential to be a knock out beauty.

It's time to give you a ropey ring girl to ding-dong belle make-under.

This is the make-under menu.

-OK.

-Please choose a celebrity style.

Rachel Bilson, Kelly Brook, Leona Lewis, Diana Vickers.

-I like Leona Lewis.

-Thank you.

Make-under menu complete.

Have you still got some fight left in you?

I have, I've still got a bit in me.

In that case, it's time for round two...

..deep cleanse. Time to give those boot the boot.

And those earrings are out for the count.

Oh, no, I've dropped one.

Never mind, it seems to have impaled itself in your belly button.

Now, take your hair out, I'll give it back to Barbie.

Two, three, oh, there we go.

-Time to cover up and start scrubbing.

-I don't like you any more.

You'll change your mind when you see the new you. Let's see those pads.

-Are you ready for your make-under?

-I am, POD.

Initiate make-under in three, two, one.

Oh, my God.

Oh, wow. I'm speechless.

Are they good tears or bad tears?

They're mainly good.

You see all my curves, and I've got everything hidden for once.

And look at these shoes, they're not even that high.

It's the real you, the new, improved, natural you.

You look beautiful, Abbie.

I just feel really, like, natural.

POD's glad you like it. Do you want to hear what the public thought of your new look?

Yes, please.

We asked the general public if they would snog, marry or avoid the new, natural-looking you.

Well, I'd snog her. She's blond, hot, nice teeth.

-That is nice.

-Snog, definitely.

-A very attractive girl.

-Awww.

Oh, I'd marry her.

She seems like a nice girl to take home to my mum.

Well, maybe, he seems nice.

Now 90% want to either snog or marry you

and only 10% want to avoid you.

Oh, that's well good!

Here is your natural beauty data.

Choose a long sleeve body-con

to compliment an hourglass frame without showing too much skin.

Darker pieces pulled through blonde hair gives a subtle, pretty look.

Use clear or pink lipgloss to create a youthful face.

You are a natural beauty, aren't you?

Yeah. For once.

Make-under a total knockout.

-Bye, Abbie.

-Bye.

I've been waiting for this all day and now it's here, it's nerve wracking.

I'm really excited and I hope she looks really pretty

and I hope she's happy with how she looks

and not just going to change back to her old ways.

Oh, my goodness, you look so nice!

You like this? Like, the hair?

-Yeah, it's better, much more natural colour.

-I am so happy.

-And you know what? I'm actually going to keep this look.

-Are you?!

No more hair extensions?

No hair extensions, no fake tan, nothing.

No fake tan? Oh.

-You think I'll find someone nice now, looking like this?

-Yes.

Wow, Abbie looked a total knock out but will she keep it up or is POD in for a re-match?

We'll find out later. Now, here at Snog Marry Avoid we don't just pay lip service to saving money.

Don't you just hate it when that happens?

There's nothing worse than when your favourite lipstick runs out or snaps,

but I've got a handy little hint which will bring it back to life.

All you need is your old lipstick,

an empty little pot that you can get from any chemist,

and some petroleum jelly.

It's simple, all you have to do is get your lipstick,

scrape it into the pot...

..get some petroleum jelly,

put it in there as well, mix it all up...

..and there you have it, a brand new lipgloss in your favourite colour.

Perfect. Mwah!

Earlier on, we met the gorgeous Lissy

and she went into POD in a bikini and gave POD a piece of her mind.

She got a beautiful make-under but has she kept it?

Let's meet her and find out. Hello.

-Hiya.

-Well, you haven't really kept the make-under, have you?

No. I had to get myself a bit of a make-OVER.

You have had a bit of a make-over. And why the blonde locks?

After I saw the make-under from POD I just thought I want a change

so I thought why not go a bit more

dramatic and make myself a blonde, a bit of blonde to brighten up my personality a bit more.

At the time it was a shock cos you were dressed,

but looking back, can you see how good you looked?

Looking back at the photo, I was actually thinking, it actually looked classy,

quite nice, but at the time I just saw like, covered and I hated it.

Not enough flesh, not enough flesh.

-Now, your friends loved the make-under.

-Yeah.

Did seeing their reaction make you think you should cover up more?

Yeah, I can get just as much attention with clothes on

than I can with them off, and it's the right kind of attention so I think I'll stick with it.

Well, I'm not sure how much of a success the make-under has been

but it's been great fun meeting you. Have you got a message for our POD?

I think you need a new update on that chip, POD. Sorry.

Next up is a real challenge for POD,

who might just have met her match this time

with a guy who has got more fingers than the average person,

and I don't necessarily mean on the ends of his hands.

Now, I'm not the one to point the finger but this is not for the squeamish. Ugh!

I am POD, who are you?

My name is Michael. Good afternoon, POD.

From the way you're dressed, I'd say you're taking the Michael.

We have one chance in life, so I'm thinking I'm not going to lose that chance.

Life is not a rehearsal, let's do it while we can. Yeah!

Let's not. There's something very strange about you.

Do you believe I was abducted by aliens and they left me with certain devices in my hands and in my arm?

POD needs proof of this alien encounter.

I can remember having these bad dreams of seeing ET

with big eyes, big bulbous eyes, and next thing I woke up, and what are they?

And the implants had just appeared.

-That's no alien, you asked a professional piercer to do that to you, didn't you?

-I did.

Warning, Michael, POD does not condone such self-mutilation

but must ask, what are they exactly?

It's made of silicone, which ladies have to enlarge their boobies.

And these ones are quite rigid, they're Teflon.

So not so much a case of flying saucers as non-stick saucepans.

How did they put the implants in there?

Well, I don't know if you can see there

but the incisions are actually made there with a scalpel...

Stop right there. I can't bear to listen for one more second.

It's absolutely appalling, Michael.

Do you realise those implants will result in very saggy forearms?

-Revolting.

-Yeah. I love them.

It's not only your arm that's been infiltrated, you're virtually

a human pincushion and light years away from being a natural beauty.

I am a natural beauty. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, my friend.

Not on my watch. My verdict is

that you have so many things piercing, poking and projecting

out of you, natural beauty could never be restored.

You are therefore rejected from my make-under programme.

You need to out a little bit more and spread your wings a bit.

And you need to return to whatever planet you came from.

Alien abductions. As if.

Do you remember the gorgeous Abbie from Southend?

She was a ring girl who had a passion for wearing,

well, not much, really,

but POD gave her a make-under and made her look like a gorgeous, natural beauty.

But has she kept it up? Let's meet her and find out.

Well, you look gorgeous!

-Thank you.

-You look beautiful!

-Thank you.

-The hair, the make-up, the outfit, everything.

Tell me about the make-under experience.

It's been life-changing. Everything about it, it's been absolutely amazing.

I really enjoyed myself and it's made me believe more in myself and accept who I am.

Now, I've got a bit of hair envy, your hair looks great...

Thank you.

-Is there no chance you're ever going to go back to the old Abbie?

-No, not at all.

I don't wear any extensions any more, hardly any make-up and my dress style has really changed.

I'm not revealing anything, I'm always covered up, so more respectable.

This is definitely the new me, I'm sticking to it,

no more of the old Abbie at all, it's gone out of the window.

-You said before you were attracting the wrong type of attention.

-Yeah.

-And a little birdie tells me since the make-under you went out for a night wearing the outfit...

-Yeah.

..and you've got a special someone in your life!

Yes, I'm not single any more so I am now in a relationship and he's really, really nice.

Well, gorgeous, I'm so happy.

It's been a huge success. POD is going to be thrilled and very smug.

Have you got a message for POD?

I just want to say thank you very much, it's been a life-changing experience.

Ugh! Has the guy with fingers in his arms left the building yet?

Most fakery is only skin deep but if it goes any deeper, it's beyond even my superior skills.

I will say though, the two girls were a triumph, POD.

-Two out of three, not too shabby.

-Thank you. Now, about that upgrade.

Is that the time already?

Got to dash, POD, so you need to POD off.
