| Programming Highlights: What’s that Smell? Dirtbusters Clean Up the Slimy and the Stinky, July 30 on OLN |
| Posted
on Tuesday, July 22, 2008 - 02:07 PM |
Cleaning a decade’s worth of rubbish from an alcoholic’s house, tackling a foul smell in a clogged toilet and even sifting through a dank sewer are truly filthy jobs, but for a special group of Brits, it’s all in a day’s work! Premiering Wed., July 30 at 9:30 p.m. ET/6:30 p.m. PT on OLN, Dirtbusters is a new six-part series that follows cleaners, plumbers, garbage collectors and exterminators on the job as they clean up – and clean out – messes in the homes and streets of England. On the front lines of the dirty war on waste, these men and women laugh in the face of filth. As trash continues to take over lovely British towns, watch as this squad of dirt soldiers rid lucky communities of rubbish, backed-up sewage and pesky rodents. No home is too slimy or smelly. No crevice is too rank or rancid. It’s often a dirty job – but these Dirtbusters are on the case!
