Unlike the knockers further down, I really rated this film. Some have accused it of being episodic but then all the episodes link up and ... hey thats a plot, isn't it? All the actors are great with the possible exception of Gemma/Tamara herself and she's more of an eye candy/device to bring out the true nature of all the other protagonists anyway.

Don' t get me wrong, this isn't a Lawrence of Arabia of the Home Counties and would have arguably been better as a ITV1 mini series with Trevor Eve as the feckless middle aged crimewriter, but it is tight, funny and, I hate to you use the word, NICE. The teenage troublemaking girls I single out for particular praise. My daughter has friends like that. Hopefully, isn't actually like that herself, but then even if she was there would be worse things. Misfits, Skins, a love interest on the Inbetweeners...
