Learned is the generally accepted spelling in the United States and Canada, while the rest of the English-speaking world seems to prefer learnt.

Yes, but we were discussing a U.K. subject. I worked with people in the U.K. and was always careful to use U.K. spellings when communicating with them.

Tangent, or hijack?
You decide.
The original premise is whether the Brit telly folks intend to treat snoring
as a possible symptom of a serious, and often DEADLY disorder--
Or choose to go along with ignorant general attitudes, and produce a comedy.
In the past, there has been brilliance from that corner of the world;
but it remains to be seen which way this goes.
I would much rather see a quasi-scientific health quest than another Jackass.

I would want to do it just so I could demonstrate my before PAP "rafter-shaking" snoring vs. my after PAP *zero* snoring.
But I ultimately wouldn't do it because I absolutely despise the entire genre of scripted, artificial-drama-laden, "reality" (ahem)... shows.

Even if the intent is misguided, it might inadvertently end up educating the public.

Don't count on it.

I am English from the UK. the site link looks like a fake news to me with so many adverts and links i’d Rather be treated than go on a snoring show, but with reality tv these days maybe it will give me my 15min of fame. Not for me in the slightest
