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).

    So You Think You Can Dance, a Lady Gaga Special, and Gigolos

    What to watch on Thursday, May 26. Your life may seem like a telenovela, what with all the blackmail, fake mustaches, gilded daggers, and tearful, Spanish-language monologues, but at no point in telenovelas do characters ever get to sit down… more

  • An excuse to watch sex scenes. You think it will be juicer than it actually is.

    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

    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

  • Wow! I think the term "Guilty Pleasure" is more pronounced in this series more than in any other~!

    At first, I thought the show was blunt, highly infused with sex, but now I realize it's far more than that. It's classy, it's beautiful, it's funny, and above all, addictive.

    I can't wait for the new episodes to air, and so glad it's one of the first to come back (September 2nd).

    Billie Piper is doing such a great job in portraying this (what I would normally call - whore) working call girl, with so many levels and layers of her personality, I think she should get an Emmy.

    Iddo Goldberg (my new best Israeli friend...) is portraying Benjamin so well, you could actually *sense* his desire and how much he actually cares for Belle. Lucky he called off the wedding!

    I hope (and believe) the next season will be even more sentential and gripping as this one was!moreless
