BBC's Fake Britain feature on ERGObaby counterfeit carriers

Last year I contacted the producers of the BBC TV show Fake Britain because it was clear to me that not only had the infiltration of fake ERGObaby carriers become widespread but people were just not aware of the dangers carrying a baby in a fake carrier posed to their baby.

The researcher took me up on the offer for support with making the feature and we filmed part of it at the Stoke Newington shop earlier this year. Here's us filming with a customer who inadvertently bought one online.

 

If you think you may have bought a Fake ERGObaby carrier read this Blog I wrote last October that explains what to look out for.

The program will be shown on BBC1 at 9.15 on Monday 28th of May, but if you missed it you can watch it on BBC iplayer at 32 minutes in.
