The show is visiting several locations across Britain, appealing directly to the public for help in solving crimes that affect everybody and is presented by ex-detective Rav Wilding and new co-host Ginny Buckley.

Wednesfield North PCSO Matthew Bailey recently told WV11 “Crimewatch is turning the spotlight on West Midlands Police during this week and on Wednesday 30th June at 9:15am to 10:00am BBC One will be at St Gregory’s Church, Wednesfield. The show is well worth a watch to see if you can help the police with enquiries about local crimes.”

Celebs Larry Lamb, Diarmuid Gavin, Emma Parker Bowles and Meg Matthews go to live with people who are experiencing life without a job, and without much prospect of one. Their aim is to try and encourage their new friends to go out and find work.

According to the Daily Mail, Camilla’s niece Emma Parker Bowles has a less happy stint behind the bar at the Noah’s Ark.

‘Momentarily, Emma seemed all right, then it was all downhill,’ says the show’s Emma Harrison.

Pub landlord Clinton Hawker says: ‘I advertised for a bar worker in the Jobcentre and had 80 people apply. If I’d known she was only going to stay two nights, I would have given the job to one of the 79 people on the dole.’

Part 1 of ‘Famous, Rich and Jobless’ airs on BBC 1 on Tuesday 9th March with part 2 following on Wednesday 10th March.
