Channel 4 and the makers of 'As If' bring Julie Burchill's novel Sugar Rush to the screen, starring Olivia Hallinan and Lenora Crichlow. Each episode is a different journey inside Kim's world as her wry observations take us into the mind of a screwed up, loved up, lustful adolescent experiencing the bright lights of Brighton and the rush of forbidden love for the first time. Being a teenage girl is tough. Being an un-cool, 15-year-old lesbian who's completely infatuated with the most outrageous and popular girl in school is downright unfair... Sugar Rush explores the world of Kim and her earth-shattering lust for the gorgeous and sassy Maria Sweet, otherwise known as Sugar.

Brilliant In Every Way
I've watched this on Channel 4 and E4 and i find myself hungering for the next episode immediately.
Its the story of Kim, whose Mum and Dad are going through a seperation and in amongst this, she has lesbian feelings for her best friend Sugar. Its a classic story of unrequited love, and will they-won't they and it is very compelling. Add the fact its lesbians and its even more compelling. But those wanting to see some flesh or sex scenes will be looking in the wrong place. This is an innocent love story and is treated as such by the actors and writers.
I saw a few episodes on TV and thought it was a great series. When you get the entire disc set it sort of spoils it for you, i really cant believe i used to like watching this rubbish on TV.
