I don't know how many of you have caught any of Footballers Wives - and from the Buffy and Angel threads here maybe not many - but it really has to be one of the queerest programmes on TV.
In last Thursday's episode, Jason (the arrogant cock of the team) took the piss out of one of the new players, called Darius, (who he doesn't know has shagged his bitch of a wife, Tanya) and ended up putting him over his knee, pulling down his shorts and spanking him in front of the rest of the team in the locker room. Now someone tell me this isn't scripted by gay men cos that could have come straight out of a porno! It wouldn't have been a surprise if they'd all circled jerked over the lad! The scriptwiriters must read Julie Birchill's columns in the Weekend Guardian.
On top of that you've got a hermaphrodite baby - and Jason (the father) is supposed to discover its mother (Jackie) is his mother! And Tanya's lines are brilliant: "If you go near my husband again you'll need more than Botox to sort it out!"
It's total trash TV and makes an interesting comparison to all the gossip surrounding players like Beckham, Veron and Freddy Lumbjerg. Which I know from Popbitch rather than from being a fan of the game - bloody boring.
Then again what else do you expect from the makers of Bad Girls aka Bad Scripts - the Prisoner Cell Block H of the 90s with firmer tits. |
