There are no end of wedding reality shows on TV these days, but one of the original and best is still Don't Tell The Bride, with its simple but effective formula of filming one half of a couple planning a wedding that the other half is almost sure to hate.

It might be the dream of many a keen young player to become a professional footballer, but the reality of the process they go through to get there is far from a fairytale.
