On Monday night I was sitting in my bed at 10pm waiting for the BAFTA award winning show that is ‘Made in Chelsea’. Like many other fans of the show I had seen the promo on E4 earlier that week and I was very excited to watch the cast bring new drama to my TV screen. I had started watching the show a few series back and got hooked quickly on this reality TV show. However on Monday night I couldn’t help feel a little…disappointed. Let’s face it the TV show has always been quite structured. For example normal people don’t tend to bump into their enemies/friends everywhere they go, especially in a place that is meant to be busy but on the show looks a little dead. However the first episode to series six looked like it might have had a script to go with it. Saying this however parts of the episode were quite amusing and it definitely had lots of drama!
Let me start off by talking about Spencer, Lucy, Louise and Andy. They seem to be the main characters and it looks as if the series might just revolve around Spencer. The episode starts off with Spencer in a therapy session talking about relationship problems and he sort of answers the question on everyone’s minds: Why did he cheat on Lucy Watson? He goes on through the episode pretending like his and Lucy’s relationship was just a rebound from Louise and that he is the perfect shoulder to cry on. Meanwhile Louise and Andy break up. Shocker! After hearing rumours and Lucy giving Andy a juicy piece of information he finally ends his relationship with Louise. Now Lucy is one of my favourite characters and I love her straight talking attitude which gives the programme a comedic tone as well as making drama, but I couldn’t help but feel a little betrayed by her normal ways when she went and told Andy and got her nose stuck in the situation. It feels like she is becoming just another cast member that goes around stirring the drama up but not in a good way.
Louise gets all teary in her bedroom later on telling Rosie how she is going to fight for the relationship. Her and Spencer take a surprising turn and now have become friends? Even though last series they hated each other? Spencer goes round to Louise just after the break up and tells her he will always be on her side? *Confused face*
Another story line waiting to happen is the scenario of Phoebe, Fran and Alex. If you don’t know already Alex is Phoebe’s first serious boyfriend that she dated years ago. Fran is very good friends with Phoebe and even describes her as a ‘sister’ in the episode. Through the summer though a spark has started to fly between Fran and Alex and they even kissed. Fran goes to tell Phoebe who looks utterly disgusted telling Fran they she is not allowed to go there while giving her a dirty look which kind of made me think she was Cruella De Vil.
The funniest part for me is the pool moment starring Francis and Rosie. Francis is commando in the pool when Rosie walks past and has to throw his swimming trunks to him. He maybe asks at an inappropriate time if she would like to go out with him and maybe become more than just friends. Rosie doesn’t seem to feel the same way as she blushes but laughs at the idea.
