To tell the truth I am watching this now and I am enjoying it. It is the English version of the hills, the accents of these pretentious english people are over the top and so are the names. At least in The Hills the names are normal e.g Kristen or Holly however in chelsea we have Binky, Caggie and Fenda! I mean what of earth are people thinking. Not only do these people talk posh their fashion sense is Lady Gaga in London. Keep you updated from my hometown being the wonderfully plain....Clapham.

Here is a quick summary:
In the year Twix and Smash were invented and Englebert Humperdinck was top of the charts, Amber was born into the chaotic Hussein family household in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire. One of seven children, she grows up spirited and mischievous, not prepared to be the dutiful Muslim daughter her parents demand of her. Never out of trouble, she reads the Koran lying down, recites lewd Northern rhymes, rips up the neighbour's garden and keeps a goat for a pet. Her dad has a ferocious temper and a glad eye for the local floozies and her mum is a seething mass of resentments. When her brother's new wife - all shimmering salwaar kameez and hoity-toity manners - moves into Hussein HQ and gets Mrs Hussein's blessing to use Amber as a servant, the scene is set for a cat fight. Against a backdrop of casual 1970s racism, tough schools and a colourful working class neighbourhood, Amber mounts her one-girl campaign to be an individual. Throughout it all her little sister Egg is her best friend, but when she gets a boyfriend and their father finds out, all hell breaks loose and, once again, Amber is the one to get the blame.
