Show Summary

Hannah is more than she appears to be in Secret Diary of a Call Girl. Hannah is also Belle, one of the top high class call girls in the city of London. Hannah and Belle have the same common goal; to make as much money as possible while they still can. This show was originally shown by ITV2 in the UK (season one from September 27th 2007 till November 15th 2007). This first season was a huge success for ITV2 with up to two million viewers per episode. Early in 2008, US network Showtime was attracted by the show's success and bought the license to show two seasons in the US (20 episodes). The broadcast is scheduled to start on June 16th 2008. The second season will air on ITV2 starting September 11th 2008. More to the shows success: The controversial sex scenes also resulted in a nomination for best soft core production at the "UK Adult Film Awards" in 2007. But that's not all! The first season has also been nominated for the "Golden Rose TV award" in the category "best drama". Only weeks after the first series ended, ITV announced a second series, and production started in early 2008. The third series aired in early 2010 almost simultaneously on ITV2 and the US station SHO. In April 2010 reports claim there will be a fourth series for which Billie Piper will get £2m.moreless

  • Someone Else Within

    6.0
    The only good part is showing that everybody is someone else within...

    The story and players;not my type
  • An excuse to watch sex scenes. You think it will be juicer than it actually is.

    6.5
    This show appeals to your curiosity. You wonder "Does a prostitute enjoy having sex with her clients?" "What exactly do they do?" "Do they have friends outside the business?" Well, you watch this show and things aren't answered with spice and intrigue. They aren't really answered. It's dull and tedious, which is sad for a 22 minute show.



    A major problem is the amount of time devoted to Hannah's relationship with her friend Ben, who isn't charismatic or gorgeous enough to be interesting. Bottom line: people tune into this show to watch debauchery but there isn't enough to hold your attention. You're better off watching Gossip Girl.moreless
  • British version of Sex in the City. It has a great iconic British Actress, more and dirty sex and in true British style does not make it look glamourous but rather takes a real life story and creates an great story based on the seedy side of London.moreless

    If you appreciate that sex is not straight forward and don't shy away from the reality that prostitution is the oldest profession then this may be for you. Ultimately i think this is a bit risque for North American's being one myself but living outside of London. Sometimes described as soft porn I would say although it is dirtier than sex in the city it really is about sex in the city rather than love and labels with sex on the side. Having read the books as well, this series is much better than the books and provides a great overview of what a real life high end prostitute goes through.moreless

  • Definitely will be repeat viewing

    7.0
    I am quite a fan of Billie Piper and after her turn as Rose Tyler, I was looking forward to this show to see if she could shed the image of the Doctor's companion. Also the show's premise seemed interesting and I was looking forward to seeing it played out.



    After Series 1, I was quite taken in. However, as I entered the subsequent series I became less and less interested in the story. As an exercise I think I will probably revisit the show and watch the shows consecutively.



    I really want to like the show more so hopefully a second viewing will help. 8 shows at 30 minutes a pop is not too much of a time investment :)moreless
