What's the secret, people ask, why do people openly discuss their lives with you on national television? ANDREW L. URBAN, who thought up the idea of Front Up and who talks to anyone he meets, answers the question.

The secret is no secret; just like Front Up itself, it's a simple thing, although it should not be confused with 'simplistic'. The simple thing is this: everyone in a crowd is an individual. Every one of us has a complex emotional, physical and psychological life. Nobody is a stereotype, even if they look like one. Front Up accepts that and relishes in it. Our aim is not to minimise people on tv, but to allow them to expand.
