Target returns tonight

3’s award winning show Target returns for a new season with more consumer information and its trademark hidden camera item. Target premieres Tuesday, January 26th at 7:30pm on 3.

Presented by Jeanette Thomas and Brooke Howard-Smith, Target provides useful consumer information in an entertaining and educational style.

“It’s the start of a new decade and the start of a new series of Target,” says producer Simon Roy.

Returning in the series’ 12th season are all the show’s favourite segments as well as Target’s trademark hidden camera item, exposing good and bad work practices.

“This segment shows viewers just what trades people get up to in your home when you’re not around,” explains Roy about the segment which in the past has landed more than one trades company in hot water.

“As well as this our Product Check returns with a new Product Check family testing a range of items.”

“And Brooke Howard Smith is back with Shame On You, naming and shaming shoddy businesses or practises and helping to solve problems that viewers have written in about.”

As well as these established segments, this year’s series also offers a brand new feature set to entertain and educate audiences. According to Roy, new to Target this season will be the “What’s Up With That” segment which will see Jeanette seeing answers to some of the many questions that puzzle consumers.

“She’ll be asking anything from whether Swedish rounding is legal, to why aren’t butchers allowed to give away Cheerio’s,” Roy explains.

Make sure not to miss this when Target returns to our screens on Tuesday, January 26th at 7:30pm on 3.
