Episode 1

Episode #1.1

29 mins

Vivienne Vyle, in a show marriage to gay actor Jared and mentored by transvestite Miriam, is a leading figure in daytime television, interviewing the lowest common denominators on her chat show for shock effect. Like her drug-taking producer Helena, her main interest is ratings rather than the human cost and new show member, Doctor Jonathan is alone in his concern for the programme's participants. Vivienne, in fact, goads a man so hard that he has to be restrained by a security guard who, in the resultant melee, falls on and hospitalizes her, so that Fern Britton takes over from her whilst she recovers.
