Hannah and Tomasz Snog Marry Avoid?

POD, you've got your work cut out!

If you're mesmerised by make-up, seduced by spray tans,

and besotted by your beauty routine,

we say it's time to give fakery the kiss-off.

Our Personal Overhaul Device, or POD for short, has been stripped down

and rebooted, and has waged war on Britain's biggest fakers.

POD would like to know how much does it take to look this cheap?

Uh!

And nowhere is safe. This time round, POD is on the road.

From Manchester to Newcastle, Liverpool to Cardiff,

if it's fake, we'll find it.

BOTH: POD, please let us in.

POD is also challenging me to try out some local style disasters.

I am WonderWAG.

And it seems the North West is still riddled with fakery,

so POD wants a rematch.

Where are we today?

ALL: Manchester!

-Hi, POD.

-Hello, Ellie.

I see we're in Manchester, then.

One visit just wasn't enough to de-fake Manchester.

In fact, you'd better be careful out there.

Oh, thank you. I didn't know you cared.

I don't. I just don't want you to get slowed down by all the slap.

You have got a lot to do.

So I've got to go and do all the work, again?

Yes. And could you pick me up some lens cleaner?

Seriously, don't push it, because you'll just get a lens cap.

Coming up, POD is faced with a girl

who has taken tanning to a whole other level.

I don't want to look like anybody else.

I lash up and hit the streets.

Let's see what the people of Manchester make of these.

And we meet a faker who thinks he's more bunny than boy.

I love looking different

from everybody else. Life is too short to be boring.

Manchester girls seem to be ruling the school when it comes to fashion,

but that might mean that POD'll keep some of them in for detention.

The girls in Manchester have got very short skirts and big hair.

You've got hair like yetis.

What's a yeti?

I only bought this yesterday.

What do you think about girls in Manchester and what they're wearing at the minute?

They like to make quite a lot of effort.

It's all about brights at the minute, isn't it? We've got to show it, haven't we?

We've got it going on.

I think Manchester's a really great city, because everything goes.

Your eyes are amazing.

Oh, thank you.

I think Manchester girls look absolutely gorgeous.

They make more effort than anywhere else.

You're clearly not from Manchester, then.

Next up is a girl whose obsession with fake tanning

has been taken to the max and then timesed by 100,

which means POD is going to go into overdrive.

Hello, I'm Hannah, and I spend my life trying to stand out.

I love tan. I've been tanning for years.

I think the oranger, the better.

I mean, the girls today do have a bit of a tan, I know that,

but Hannah looks as if she's been on a permanent holiday to Spain.

Yeah, I think my face is nice and colourful.

It could just be toned down a bit.

My dad pays for everything.

I reckon, a month, it would probably cost about £300.

You don't want to look like too much of an idiot, do you?

She'd be more pretty without as much tanning and make-up on,

and my pocket would be a lot healthier.

Maybe me and the wife could go out a couple of times a week, or something.

I think I look amazing with my tan. I love it.

Especially when I go out. Everybody looks at me.

'My friends always take the Mick out of my look.'

That's nice.

Sometimes they call me Frodo Baggins, which I'm not happy about!

I love her to bits,

but she just doesn't need to look like that to get attention.

I could wear two.

It would be nice to see her natural beauty, for once.

'People judge me by the way I look.'

Have you got any jobs going?

I haven't, no, sorry.

People just look at me like I'm joking, but I'm actually not.

I'm really serious.

A makeunder, I think, would prove to Hannah that she doesn't

have to wear all the tan to be who she is.

You know, and just be proud of herself without it.

I'm terrified what POD is going to do to me.

I won't stand out, I'll look exactly the same as everybody else.

Wow. I mean, there's fake tan, and then there's Hannah.

Let's go and have a chat.

Hannah, I've met some girls who are orange, and then I met you.

Oh, my lord! You are mahogany!

-Thank you.

-You are white, aren't you?

-Yeah.

-So you would go out every day looking this brown?

-Yeah.

-What about if you're going out in the evening? Would you whack it up a notch?

Yeah, I'd put even more on.

All your bed linen and stuff must be disgusting.

-It is.

-Have you had to go for dark stuff, then, now? You can't do white.

Oh, no. My mum still does white. I know.

-She must wash them every 15 minutes!

-Yeah.

How can you fake tan with those on?

You get used to it. You can do everything with them.

Really?

Yeah. There is one thing I can't do, and that's take the pound out of the trolley.

That's the only thing.

Even you must think this is quite an extreme look, now.

Sometimes I do think it, like when I look in the mirror

and I think, "Am I a bit over the top?"

But then I think, "Well, I like it, so..."

-So, you don't have a job at the minute.

-No.

Is that one of the reasons that you'd like to come into POD, then?

Yeah, I'd like to maybe tone down a little bit,

just so they might take me a bit more serious.

I cannot wait to see how this works out.

Hannah, POD awaits.

I'm really scared!

I am POD, the Personal Overhaul Device. Who are you?

Hi, POD. I'm Hannah.

Hannah, you are a streaky, made-up mess!

What colour are you supposed to be?

I think my colour is very orange and glowing.

POD computes orange would be an improvement.

You must have bought all the fake tan in Wales.

Do I look expensive?

-Unfortunately, no.

-Oh.

Now, those talons.

They're beautiful. Don't you like them? They're cheetahs.

I like being fake, POD.

Clearly. What is the fakest part of you?

My face.

Hannah, you may have the fakest face POD has ever seen,

but are you the Queen of the Oompa-Loompas?

I like to think so.

Let's see, shall we?

Hannah, POD would like to award you the Olympic gold medal for the most tanned person ever.

Oh, thank you!

But you know what that means? You couldn't get any tanner than you are now.

-Are you excited to represent your country in the tanning addicts Olympics?

-I am, I'm really excited.

OK. Are you going to give your acceptance speech?

Erm, yeah. I would like to thank my dad for paying for it,

and I'd like to thank myself for looking so good wearing the tan.

Hannah, you may think you look good,

POD computes it's a disaster,

but what do you think the general public thinks?

I don't know. People probably think I just look cheap, don't they, POD?

Well, the public have spoken. Be brave, Hannah.

OK.

Run phase one.

I asked the public, "Would you want to snog, marry or avoid this girl?"

What do you think they said?

Snog.

Let's find out.

Avoid. She's too tanned.

That's true, actually, but they shouldn't avoid me for it.

I would avoid that girl.

She's got too much make-up on.

I can't even see her features,

I can't even see the colour of her eyes, either,

and that's really important.

You can't see my eyes,

so I agree with that, you can't see them,

but you still shouldn't avoid me.

Unfortunately, I'd avoid her,

because she's got too much make-up on her face,

so if I put my finger inside her cheek,

she probably wouldn't feel it,

she's got so much make-up on.

Well, that is true.

Nobody is allowed to touch my face, though.

Hannah, 100% of people

said they wanted to avoid you.

Well, that's not fair, is it, POD?

I reckon you're lying, POD.

POD never lies.

Are you ready to hear POD's verdict?

If I must, yeah.

POD computes you are a tan-tastic,

totally plastic Queen of the Oompa-Loompas, and you need my...

What are you going to do to me, POD?

-I'm going to turn you into a natural beauty.

-OK.

Run phase two.

OK, Hannah. Put on your deep cleanse dressing gown.

It's time to say goodbye, Oompa-Loompa.

I feel like my nan!

I bet your nan wouldn't wear that wig. Get rid of it.

What, all of it?

Yes, Hannah, all of it.

This'll take a while, POD.

Natural beauty can't be rushed.

This is no laughing matter, Hannah.

I don't like you any more, POD.

I'm not here to be liked. Now, remove those ludicrous lashes.

What, all of them?

Yes, Hannah, all of them.

There's not that many pairs.

Hannah, you are close to a lost cause.

Yeah!

Now, remove all that slap.

-Hannah.

-Yes, POD?

That is disgusting!

Is it getting better?

Anything's an improvement.

Now, are you ready to see yourself as a natural beauty?

I doubt it.

Run the makeunder.

Oh!

Oh, it's really nice.

Even without your fake face?

Yeah.

Sorry.

I really like it!

You should. Are you happy?

I really like it.

Good. Let's see if the general public agree.

I'd marry her.

She looks very cute and very nice.

I hope you all think I am.

Hannah, you definitely are.

I'd give her a cheeky snog.

She seems very cute and very natural.

Oh, God.

I'd definitely marry her.

Her hair looks really nice,

and her skin has a really good complexion, as well.

Oh, that's a posh word.

A posh word for a classy girl.

Hannah, before, everyone wanted to avoid you.

Now, 60 percent want to snog you,

and the other 40 percent want to marry you.

Yay!

How do you feel, Hannah?

Really happy.

You are no longer the Queen of the Oompa-Loompas.

You are now the princess of natural beauty.

OK.

Has POD proven to you that you are, in fact, a natural beauty?

Yes, you have, POD.

Then my work is done. Goodbye.

Bye.

I'm really nervous about people seeing my new look.

My dad's inside. I hope he's going to like my look, so fingers crossed.

Really excited. Excited and nervous to see what she looks like.

She's only just come to 18.

I haven't really seen her in two years nearly now,

what she should really look like without her make-up on.

I think I do look really classy, actually, for the first time!

I hope it makes her think that she doesn't have to put all tan

and make-up on to be who she is, really.

Oh, my God!

You look brilliant!

Who is this?!

You look brilliant.

Do you like it?

You look great!

It's unbelievable, the change.

I thought it would be OK,

but I didn't expect him to think it was that good.

She looks so sophisticated. I feel like I've got my daughter back now.

You look brilliant. You do look really good.

You made a dad very happy, POD. Thank you.

I've seen a lot of girls today in Manchester with fake eyelashes,

and frankly, I'm feeling left out,

so what POD doesn't know won't hurt her.

Let's see what the people of Manchester make of these.

Hello, sorry.

Is there anything about me that particularly stands out?

-Your eyelashes.

-You like them?

-Yeah, they look really nice.

What do you think of my face?

Mental.

-Hello, sorry, madam.

-Yeah?

I just wondered what you thought of my eyelashes.

I think they are extreme.

It's quite cold, so maybe they're keeping my eyes warm.

They are really beautiful.

You have to be pretty to wear them, though.

If you're ugly, you could not get away with it.

They're very in-your-face. They're lovely.

You can't backtrack now!

Is there anything that stands out about me, particularly?

Your eyelashes.

You said that whilst looking at my boobs. That was quite clever!

Turn to t'side.

They're thick, aren't they?

Yeah, very. Wide load.

Thumbs up or thumbs down for the eyelashes?

Thumbs down. I'm sorry.

There's only one thing for it. They've got to go.

I'm ready.

I hope I don't take my eyes with them.

Ow!

That's disgusting.

Next up is a bloke who works in a casino,

but will his luck run out when he meets POD?

Place your bets.

Hi, my name is Tomazs. I'm 27 years old.

I'm working in Local Casino in Nottingham.

And I don't miss a trick when it comes to my sexy style.

When I spin the balls, some people can get really lucky.

Woo!

My style is always, like, outstanding, so it's never, never boring, I would say.

There's never, never enough of sunglasses.

These are really nice. They look really nice on my face.

Love to be the first male Playboy bunny in the world.

I love looking different from anybody else.

Life is too short to be boring.

I guess my friends love the way I look,

but, definitely, sometimes, they wish I could change,

because I believe, sometimes, I bring them too much embarrassment.

Usually he wears less clothes than me.

Let's put it this way,

I'm trying to pretend that England is a huge beach

with beautiful weather.

He's always late, everywhere we go.

Maybe he needs a little bit of change, so maybe it will be good for him.

Maybe this style is not always for shopping,

but definitely for going out, it's the best style ever.

Some people love the way I look,

because obviously they've had a few drinks already.

But I believe they think I'm a bit too much sometimes.

I guess I would like to have a makeunder

because some people may start taking me more seriously than they do.

POD, I'm really looking forward to meeting you,

but you can forget about touching my hair.

Casino worker Tomazs thinks he's aced his looks,

but some may say he dresses like a bit of a joker.

Anyway, time for me to meet him. Better work on my P-p-p-poker face.

Hello, Tomazs.

Hey, how are you?

Welcome to my croupier table.

Oh, I love green.

So, I hear you're probably quite a whizz at cards.

Mm-hmm, I'm good with cards, certainly.

And these are special snog cards.

Basically, the first one to say snap wins the cards.

SHE BLOWS RASPBERRY

OK, you go first.

-BOTH: Snap!

-I won!

-I was first.

-You banged it. No, no.

-No, no, no.

I'm having a go of that.

Have you ever worn those before?

Oh, my God, actually, I did, yeah.

So, Tomazs.

-Yeah.

-You really haven't got many clothes on.

Do you not get a little bit chilly when you go out?

Do you know what? It makes me feel like I'm on summer holiday. I love it. I can't help it.

What is the worst thing POD could do to you?

If she's going to touch my hair, this is going to be the worst thing.

I cannot imagine myself with hair down.

If it's going to be hair down, I'm not going to be happy about it.

Give me a profile look, because it's like a...

It's quite an extreme style, isn't it?

It is, I know it is.

Can I squash it and see if it goes back?

Yeah, but be gentle.

OK. You ready?

Yeah. OK.

Oh, it does! It's got memory.

It does have, yeah. It's clever, isn't it?

You're so happy with your look. Why do you want to come to POD for a makeunder?

I guess it would be a great opportunity for me

to see myself from other sides, and maybe I don't need to put

so much effect to look nice, and maybe I just need to put

a simple T-shirt on and wake up in the morning with hair down

and just go like that on the street, you know, and be myself more.

So, Tomazs, all that remains for me to say is POD awaits.

I am POD, the Personal Overhaul Device.

Who are you?

Hi, I'm Tomazs.

Tomazs, POD computes that without all your fakery,

you would actually be a handsome young man.

Well, I know I'm handsome, obviously.

I can take it as a compliment.

But instead of being handsome, you are just an orange fool.

Orange is a beautiful colour, actually. Orange is a trendy colour.

Tomazs, POD computes that you are more tragic than trendy.

Does my hair look OK?

No, it looks awful.

You must be Jedward's biggest fan.

I really hate that, because actually,

I had this kind of hairstyle before they've actually been born.

They actually saw me on the street once, and then they were like,

"Oh, my God. I love your hairstyle."

And then, two months later, I saw them wearing the same hairstyle.

That's not true, is it, Tomazs?

It's true. Tomazs never lies!

We'll agree to disagree.

Now, why are you only half-dressed?

I think I look good in this way. I'm hot and sexy.

I mean, I wouldn't say sexy, but I would say definitely hot.

If you look so good, why have you come to POD?

Maybe people would start taking me more seriously

and maybe I would find the ideal partner of my life.

And what would your perfect partner be like?

Just a normal-looking person,

and completely opposite to me, obviously.

Do you think you are attracting a normal-looking person with this look?

No.

Exactly.

What do you think the general public say about your look?

Big carrot man, or something.

Something stupid, something we all know what they're going to say.

Run phase one.

I asked the public, "Would you want to snog, marry or avoid this man?"

What do you think they said?

Definitely snog. Everybody wants to snog me.

I'm everybody's dream.

I'm afraid you may be the one dreaming, Tomazs.

I would avoid.

He looks like an '80s throwback.

I'd avoid. He looks like an extra from a Disney film.

As if, seriously. God, as if!

I'd definitely avoid him.

He looks quite tacky,

quite obnoxious, and a bit scary for me.

Oh, God, scary!

Yes, Tomazs, you are scary.

In fact, 80% of the public want to avoid you.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God, seriously!

POD computes you are a freaky-haired fake with foolish fashion sense,

and you need my...

Pull yourself together, young man. Now, start de-faking.

This is going to go away, now.

Please don't ask me to take my pants off.

You can keep your pants on, thank you very much.

Oh, my God. This is so ridiculous. This is so funny.

Seriously, look at me.

I'm looking.

Now, it's time to get rid of that orange face.

Mmm, so nice.

POD computes you already look fresher.

I feel fresher, definitely, but obviously not very attractive.

Well, let's see what I can do about that. Run the makeunder.

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

I look like...

Is it me?

I look like a nun.

Well, hopefully we've broken a bad habit.

I don't know what to say, this is weird!

Tomazs, you look very handsome.

I look like a little boy.

You look fresh.

I look quite normal, do I?

I would snog myself.

You may want to snog yourself, Tomazs,

but do you think the public will be as keen?

Yeah, obviously.

If someone wants to snog and marry me,

I'll be the luckiest person in the world.

Let's see.

Yeah, I'd snog him. He's quite fit.

With a few extra drinks,

I might actually marry him, and all.

I actually look like

I'm going straight into the church.

I'd snog him, because he looks like

he'd approach me in a bar.

I'm not that easy, though!

I would snog him. He looks beautiful.

Oh, beautiful, that's lovely!

Yes, Tomazs, beautiful.

In fact, 90% of the public

want to either snog you or marry you.

Well done to Tomazs!

Well done to POD, I think.

POD computes your makeunder has been a success.

Yeah, yoo-hoo!

Natural beauty has been well and truly restored.

Stop being cheesy!

Goodbye, Tomazs.

Goodbye.

We are going to meet my best friend, Yolenta.

She's waiting for me.

I know him as a crazy-looking guy, and always with funky hair,

so he's probably a little bit scared to see me now.

I don't know what to expect. I can't wait.

Wish me good luck.

Ta-dah!

Are you all right?

I like it!

Really? Yay!

It's great!

Look at what they've done to me. Look at my hair!

I really, really like it, and I really love it.

I think he'll keep it, and I can tell he likes it as well.

There's something I love about the look.

This is the opportunity for me to find something different.

Cheers!

Earlier, we met Hannah,

whose love of spray tanning gave brown

a whole new meaning,

so has she kept her makeunder?

Yes.

-Yes, you pretty much have.

-Yeah.

-You are such a different colour, Hannah.

-I know.

It's phenomenal. I didn't realise there was this lurking underneath.

I know. I sold my machine.

That's a really big step for you.

Yeah, it was. I cried.

What, when you sold it?

Yeah.

Farewell, my love!

So, what prompted that, then?

A new start.

Now I can go and buy different things instead of tan all the time.

-What else are you going to buy?

-I want a car now.

You want your dad to save up for you for a car?

Yeah. At least I've got something to show for it,

other than my skin being orange.

Do you think you believe that you can be a natural beauty now, Hannah?

More than before, yeah.

Everybody loved it, said that it's so much better now.

What do you think?

I still wouldn't completely no make up, but I wear a lot less, so yeah.

Do you think you would have ever done this if it was just up to you?

No. No. Definitely not.

So, Hannah, have you got a final message for POD?

Thank you, POD, so much for changing me.

I feel so much happier now, and I know I can be a natural beauty.

Cheers? I've got salad in my class. Want a bit of cucumber?

The streets of Manchester are almost free of fakery,

apart from some stubborn style sinners who only POD can deal with.

You stick out like a sore thumb.

Like a very attractive sore thumb, yeah.

False.

Ugh! What have you got all over your face?

I have a lip piercing,

I have a nose piercing,

and I have a facial implant

which is stuck in,

and I have to get that one cut out,

if I want that out.

Revolting!

Is natural always best?

Yes.

I don't agree.

You're wrong.

No, you're wrong!

Infuriating!

You don't like fakery, so maybe you should leave.

Not while there are still unnatural monstrosities

like you walking the streets.

Earlier we met casino worker Tomazs,

who'd been hedging his bets on his love of fakery,

but has he kept his look?

No, not really.

I would say, like, 50%. 50/50.

Tomazs, you are glowing orange at me.

-I know, I know.

-Show me your hands.

It's not that bad.

-That is filthy!

-It's not, it's not!

It is, it's grubby!

At least the hair is gone. It's just amazing, I love the colour.

The colour really suits you.

-You know who you looked like?

-No idea.

I was thinking a bit of Patrick Swayze, from Dirty Dancing.

Mmm, I'm going to have to...

# She's like the wind. #

Oh!

Can you do that thing?

Well, I can't do that thing, but I can learn.

-It is much better than it was.

-Yes.

Do you think this new, slightly toned-down Tomazs

is more likely to find his perfect partner?

Yes. If there is one partner in the world, waiting for me,

then I'm definitely going to find them.

Then maybe you could just dress up for them as your secret Playboy bunny.

That would be very interesting!

Do you have a final message for POD?

POD, thank you very much for my big change.

I really enjoyed the experience, and I'm really going to miss you,

and I'll miss you too, darling.

You're so smooth. Totes love it.

Give me high-five, you big suck-up.

High-five with my orange hands!

Hello, it's Ellie.

Come on in, Ellie.

Thank you.

Hi, POD. What a day.

Manchester has been challenging, again.

Hasn't it just?

I've been cleaning my lens constantly.

I've got glitter on my hands from one of the girls.

It's contagious.

I think it is.

Can I use your toilet, please?

I seriously think someone outside just asked to use the toilet.

POD is not a toilet,

although she is the only natural beauty we've seen today.

Manchester still needs lots of attention.

I think you're right, but frankly, I think we've done enough for today.

I know what that means.

Laters. POD off.
