Austin Mitchell says reality TV show was 'big mistake'
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8518748.stm
Mr Mitchell said 'smarter Labour MPs' turned down the programme
Labour MP Austin Mitchell has said he regrets taking part in a TV show which he claimed set out to "humiliate MPs".
He said he appeared in Tower Block of Commons, in which four MPs live on some of Britain's most deprived estates, "to put the case for council housing".
But Mr Mitchell said he was portrayed as "greedy and out of touch", adding: "I should never have fallen for it."
