Channel 4’s new reality interactive TV experiment.
‘Seven Days follows the interwoven lives of some of Notting Hill's most colourful characters’
After about 7 minuets I felt like I had to write something down.
As compelling as watching a torture film; it’s not nice and I hate it, but I continued to watch.
‘I wouldn’t even wear that dress for sick children.’
Sam and Laura the two hateful upper middle class girls in Soho shopping for a French maids dress, I missed why they require one, but it was the most entertaining strand of the show. Especially the line: ‘I hope no one sees me in here’ uttered by one of the girls as they entered Harmony, a licensed Soho sex emporium, followed by a camera crew. I’d like to think she was making a joke, but I doubt it.
They seem to hate each other and themselves, with zero self esteem and confidence, which is strange as I discover they are models and the maid outfits were for a tacky looking awards ceremony… Thinking about it, perhaps it’s not so strange.
‘I feel like Paula Radcliffe on her first marathon.’
Hannah, the 26-year-old mummy’s boy, - sorry girl. She reminds me of Tracey Emin, not sure why, big mouth I think, or perhaps it’s her vagueness towards her privileged life. Very dull trustafarian, not much to report. Highlight is her overuse of ‘Mummy’.
‘I’d rather be pregnant for every day of the rest of my life, rather than deal with the ensuing children.’
I didn’t get her name and I don’t care. What kind of mother says that? And what kind of mother says that on TV? Brilliant.
‘I put him in the fridge on his favorite pillow, I covered him in rose petals and want away for two and a half years.’
Keith Richards sound-a-like and property developer, sitting in his plunge pool talking about a cat he had for 14 years.
Moktar, a new law student doesn’t see the point in going to university if the government can’t guarantee him a job. Doe’s the state owe him a living? Or should he work hard to make something of his life? To be honest, who cares?
I just wanted to express some feelings about this show, I doubt I’ll watch it again, it’s not the programme makers I have a problem with; I just find the characters so shallow and hateful. It makes me squirm to watch, perhaps that’s an underling problem I have with my fellow humans or it might just be the people chosen to be in 7 days.
Check it out on 4oD.
Woof.
