I had this recorded for a long time before I finally sat down to watch this programme.
Series 1 of I Hate Suzie was So Good and worth the wait.
Pros: I did like the main character playing a true to life individual who was enthralling to see on screen. This show tackled so many issues, like struggling to be a mum, feminism, drug addition, keeping her career in intact & much more. Billie Piper was sensational in the show & I was very impressed by the cinematography for this show.
Cons: I feel I may have to watch this series again as at times I got slightly lost and a bit confused with the story & this show might not be for everyone because of some of the content.
I recommend watching the first series of I Hate Suzie before preparing to watch the second series later this year.
Rating: 8.5 out of 10 Stars
