Brentwoood, Essex, recently starred in her own satellite television series called: “Totally Jodie Marsh: Who'll Take Her Up The Aisle”. The MTV series saw Jodie (28)


interview and date potential hus­ bands. But there was scandal when a national newspaper claimed the show was a set-up because Jodie had already been dating the “winner”, model Matt Peacock, before the show began and that they had previ­ ously planned to wed. Startled at the allegation, MTV


confronted the couple, who denied it. However, in a secretly recorded con­ versation between Manchester-born M a t t (24) and a friend, Matt


appeared to admit that he and Jodie had been living together for two months prior to the show.


■ Surprisingly the scandal did not


come as a blow to Poshu, the designer shoe shop in Accrington Road, Whal­ ley, which sells exclusive labels such as Lulu Guinness, Patrick Cox, Mark Jacobs and Nicole Farhi. The owner of the shop, Mrs Emma


Stanworth, insisted that she was not “angry at all” and also revealed that this was not the first time Jodie had shopped at the store, which also sells bags and purses. I t was not surprising th a t she


would also approach them for the lOcm-heeled sparkly red shoes, pic­ tured, that she wore to her televised wedding. ■ Mrs Stanworth further revealed how the glamour girl called in person to collect the Patrick Cox shoes, inspired by the ones worn by Judy Garland in “The Wizard of Oz” and named after her character,

“Dorothy”. The shoes - chosen to match an unconventional crimson wedding dress - normally retail at £225, but Mrs Stanworth declined to comment on whether Jodie paid


for them. However, it appears th a t many


who gave goods or services for the televised wedding were expecting more publicity than they got. It was reported that Jodie hired 40 security guards to keep “the paparazzi” at bay, but in the end only a single pho­ tographer showed up. During the show, viewers cringed


as Jodie’s personal assistant called various shops trying to collect “free­ bies”, only to be met with a torrent of polite refusals. Jodie bragged in her online diary


tha t altogether she “blagged” a whopping £150,000 worth of freebies for her TV wedding, including her red wedding dress, £12,000 ring, a marquee, decorations, photographs and fnnd for the hash.

HSE warning to farmers during baling work


FARMERS are being warned by the Health and Safety Exec­ utive (HSE) to ensure they take appropriate safety precau­ tions during baling work. I t follows two North West


incidents involving baling, and while the causes of each are still under investigation, they serve as a reminder of the potential dangers for farmers during such work. In one incident a 21-year-old


was crushed by a falling silage bale at Castle Clough Farm, Hapton, Burnley. He is seriously ill and under­ going hospital treatment. In the other, a 70-year-old


self-employed farmer was killed by falling hay bales that he was unloading from a trailer at his


farm in Nantwich, Cheshire. Andy Gay, HSE’s North


West Principal Inspector for Agriculture, said: “A quick ref­ erence for advice can be made to HSE leaflet ‘Safe working with bales in ag ricu ltu re’, which can be accessed via the HSE website on the following: www.hse.gov.uk “These incidents can be as


varied as being hit by falling bales or falling from the bales during.stacking. The work should be carried out by com­ petent people, including those on temporary or casual work. “They should be.aware of


the dangers and precautions and understand the working procedures for the work and what to do in.emergency.” ,
