Saw it on iplayer last night. It also seemed to steal the storyline from Devil Wears Prada, when yer one didn't get the job..?

just settling down to watch this now, first I've ever seen of it, how long's it been going?

thatsnotmymonkey · 21/01/2010 20:05

It is total shite, the worst wooden acting and the thinist cliched up script. don't bother. truly cringey

fishie · 21/01/2010 20:06

oh isn't it embarrassing. i can't work out which is worst, the script or the plot.

duckyfuzz · 21/01/2010 20:08

just seen a bit tonight, it is embarassingly awful, i'm appalled at dervla, I thought she had better taste!

BitOfFun · 21/01/2010 20:08

I tried it on I-player and switched off. It had an air of a children's drama about it. House Of Elliott was better

MissWooWoo · 21/01/2010 20:17

it's pants isn't it? very wooden acting and know exactly what you mean about children's drama.

shame, could have been fabulous daahlings!

MissWooWoo · 21/01/2010 20:23

Ahhh ... switched over to rerun of Gossip Girl, feel sooooooo much better (MTV +1)

Slartybartfast · 21/01/2010 20:27

it is the waterloo road slot, another bad un, but that was quite fun to watch. i quite enjoyed this light heartedness last week.

btw, she shouldnt be reading her new boyfriends texts... should she?

thelunar66 · 21/01/2010 21:47

Oh bugger..i've recorded both episodes for watching alone when DH is away next week.

Slartybartfast · 21/01/2010 21:57

tnoght was really bad.

Ewe · 21/01/2010 22:00

Bloody awful. Shit writing, worse acting.

vanimal · 21/01/2010 22:03

It is shite! The acting is horrifically bad.

Although the lead girl is very pretty and her boyfriend is YUM....

Tommy · 21/01/2010 22:08

Dervla Kirwan is surprisingly bad

woodforthetrees · 22/01/2010 22:20

I can cope with a lot of rubbish telly but realised I was wasting precious evening time watching crap so switched over....That girl in it is in loads of stuff ATM.

Rindercella · 23/01/2010 13:22

It is pretty shite I agree. Although DH says that DD is going to look like the lead actress when she grows up What's the bf been in before? I recognise him, but can't place where from.

Blondeshavemorefun · 23/01/2010 15:04

am i the only one actually liked it?

Slartybartfast · 04/02/2010 20:36

still on,
it is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo BAD

2shoes · 04/02/2010 22:13

i like it, it is fun

frecklyspeckly · 04/02/2010 22:26

Dervla is so much better, than, THIS!
She should have stayed at home with her lovely husband (drool)...

Slartybartfast · 04/02/2010 22:27

who he?

frecklyspeckly · 04/02/2010 22:38

Rupert Penry Jones from Spooks the blonde one was also in remake of The 39 Steps on ITV last Christmas.

satc2bringiton · 05/02/2010 10:10

I gave up at the start of Ep 3, it's bad

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/02/2010 15:05

2shoes same here,nice to have a bit of light hearted watching tbh

LaTristesse · 17/02/2010 17:24

I actually really like it, although I am also aware it's pretty rubbish. (Preg brain maybe... will that excuse wash here I wonder?) I think I basically want to own their wardrobes...

tethersend · 17/02/2010 17:30

I expected it to be utter shit and I was disappointed.
