    Factual

    A few Chelsea accents in there but other than that, a reasonable portrayal

    of modern day teen life, drugs, nudity, anorexia, foul language, simutated arousals, practicall no holds barred. It's funny, it's tragic, it's teen life with a sprinkle of lechery from adults who should know better. A hit on TV and no doubt the DVD release will prove just as popular.

    True to life

    Very funny, very accurate, and worth a watch!

    It's basically (in my opinion) a watered down Shameless. Foul language, nudity, drugs, and crude humour. If you like Shameless, give this a try. Not quite as good, but still very entertaining!
