Many of my friends have been telling me to watch Made in Chelsea for months but after
watching an episode of TOWIE, I was put off both of them for life. That is
until I stumbled across an old episode of MIC on E4 the other day and I must
say I was hooked.
Maybe it’s the classy extravagant lifestyle that these
people live with the cars, the clothes and the champagne which makes this so
much more appealing than TOWIE but maybe it’s because it also seems so much
less fixed. There are some genuinely awkward scenes that make you squirm and
cringe until you almost turn over but there are also some literally brilliant
laugh-out-loud scenes which wouldn’t have worked if they’d been pre-written
(especially because I’m not sure these people can act well enough to deliver
them properly).
And I may have only seen three episodes so far but two
words… Caggie Dunlop. How amazing is this girl? Maybe I’m just being
superficial here because one of the biggest draws to her is how gorgeous she is
but she’s also sweet as well!! How often do you get that combination in a girl
these days? But I’ll continue to watch because maybe I haven’t seen her bitchy
side yet.
The bromance between Hugo and Spencer simply makes the show.
From when they both came on screen, it was obvious that you should like Hugo and hate Spencer. Hugo
so far seems sweet and almost, almost a genuine guy (excuse me if I’m wrong-
naïve Made in Chelsea
fan here, soon to be more experienced!). Spencer, however, is just that player
girls should stay clear of. Yet, and maybe this is just because of my weakness
for bad boys, Spencer is awesome. Nobody could even try to hate that cheeky
little grin and his stupid-but-he-thinks-they’re-brilliant plans.
MIC is fast becoming my guilty pleasure and if you’re
reading this and still haven’t watched it, seriously give it a go. You will be
sucked into this material world where drinking champagne during the day is
normal. Cheers.
