THE UNSUNG HEROES OF TV : WOMEN

Influences abound in my list below of the hottest things on telly right now.

Example
HAZEL BAILEY - FOOTBALLER'S WIVES

Quite possibly the best character on English TV. Hazel Bailey Chairman of Sparks FC, drinks and smokes for England, has a Warholesque type picture of herself behind her desk, enjoys a night out on the fancy pants and repeatedly tries to seduce the wives of her beloved footballers. Cockney accented, ball busting red headed goddess.

Example
SUMMER - THE OC

I've come to like this series quite late in the piece and it is all because of the very very hot Summer. Looks great in a variety of Comic Girl action outfits and has a wisdom that belies her years. Her angst is better than Beverly Hill 90210, Grange Hill and Degrassi put together.
And...
the on off shenanigans with Seth tickle my fancy no end. GO TEEN ANGST.


Example
FENELLA KERNEBONE - THE MOVIE SHOW

Fucking sexy chick this one, the first time I saw her in the flesh I couldn't stop looking at her eyelids and practically apopolexed with jealousy. The only reason I watch The Movie Show except for Jay Katz and his funny disdainful treatment of Megan Spencer.

Example
CARMELLA SOPRANO - THE SOPRANOS

HOT damn gorgeous mafia mother, Tony doesn't know how good he has it. Makes great food, looks great in a twinset and thin belt, breaks the hearts of men all around. God Bless her and her New Jersey accent, big hair and strict hand with her rotten kids. If she ever decides to leave Tony there is a safe haven at my place.




The women of TV, loved by yours truly. They hold my hand on those lazy nights in front of the box and inspire me to be a better person. By taking the best characteristics on those above and combining them to create a superwoman of TV we would end up with...

Example
LEE LEE CHIN - SBS NEWS

Smart, Sexy, Possibly Prone To Teen Angst, Great Eyelids, Lesbian PinUp Girl Who Doesn't Mince Words, Has Great Fashion Sense And Would Whip You Into Shape,Using Her Iron Will, Faster Than You Can Say Spaghetti.
