going off topic a bit (as you do)  i hear that when they do that programme, how clean is your house, Kim and Aggie can't stand each other that they have to be filmed at separate times!  
Money wasters!!!

Changing your bed linen once a day is obsessive IMO.  That is far too often, and imagine all the time, washing powder and electricity and water you'd use?  Have to admit, I have neither time or inclination to change my family's bed linen daily.  Once every 2 weeks it's changed in our house, on the 1st and the 15th of the month.  That is often enough IMO... each to their own though eh?  About half so far, change the linen around every 1.5 to 3 weeks: but who changes it less than three times a year?!    As I said, each to their own.

Yes, they must not have much else to do you would think!
And of course all the energy wasted. 

Yes every two weeks is amble unless their is a dire need.

I agree Eve   I care a lot for the environment too, so using all this water and electricity and detergent and so on when it's not necessary would not sit well with me.

Me too, Cags... I feel like a dirty mare now though cos I only do mine once a fortnight.    Does it make it better that I'm only in them about five and a half hours a night?

Usually every 7-8 days. I pull the duvet down every morning to air the bed as well cos someone told me that if you've slept in it all night that the heat will attract them mite things if you just plonk the duvet back on so it's something I've done automatically for years. I've recently got a laaavely new Kingsize bed (not a sleigh one though - it's a divan but it makes me feel tall when I'm lying down cos I'm short but I have got a black steel rather swish headboard)

Can't beat fresh bed sheets though, Egyptian cotton and a goosedown. Gawwwwj

Not at all Kaffy LOL.    You should change them when you 'feel' they need changing.  TBH, I think unless there is a necessity, (like you have been poorly, thrown up, sweated a lot, had a 'night-time accident' or their has been anything spilt onto it,) then I can't really see the neccessity to change them any more often than once every 10 to 14 days.  However, each to their own:

I actually shower every single day and some days twice... if I have been to work, and/or have had a physical day, then I will shower in the morning as I always do as soon as I get up and then I may shower again at around 3 or 4pm.  It literally takes 3 minutes and is quicker than washing yourself...  However, my friend who lives next door, says she sees no reason to shower more than 3 times a week.  I really could not go out without showering as I like to feel really clean....  Like I said, it's a personal choice.  Maybe mine don't need changing more than once every 10 to 14 days because both myself and my other half shower once a day (and some days twice...) so that is why the linen stays clean longer.

3 times a week for showering?! Well, yes, each to their own, but in the back of my mind I've always got that 'what if you have to go to hospital? clean pits, clean ears and clean knickers' thing in my head. (The chances of getting run over are somewhat decreased when in my own home but still you never know). Plus I don't understand how people can not only feel mingy but also other people will smell you before you smell yourself so if they want to hum then that's up to them
