Late to the party but - Rivals!

Very late to the party, I know, but I am loving Rivals. I wouldn't have had Alex Hassell as Rupert (maybe Oliver Chris or Rupert Penry-Jones) but the cast and that soundtrack! Really fab.

It's great, isn't it! I agree about the casting of Rupert. He should be blond. So looking forward to the next series.

I watched it when it first came out and re-watched it all last week, it’s so funny, usually I can’t stand Danny Dyer, but he’s great in this. I agree the soundtrack is fab. I read the books many, many years ago, I real eye opener. I would rather Aidan Turner have played Rupert, way more sexier to me.

Agree about rupert. Not how he was in my mind from the books at all and struggled to change my mindset 😆. Fab one than that though and season 2 is soon 😁 x
