As promised, my first 'real' blog is about the inadvertent dramedy that is 'Footballers Wives'.
This show centres around the (oddly enough) wives of soccer stars from the fictional Earls Park FC, affectionally known as Sparks. They are tarty, trashy, bitchy and plastic and FANTASTIC. Now I could give you a run down of who wrote and produced this wonderful series but I think that is boring and this blog is all about the exciting. If you want to know the dull details you can always try the official site at http://www.footballerswives.tv/ - this is also the place to visit for photos of the stars.
My favourite storyline involves Amber Gates - the wife of the second captain of Sparks (the first one having been pushed off the top of a building by the daughter-in-law of the woman he had an affair with and sired a hermaphroditic child who she was passing off as her own - the daughter in law not the woman - have you kept up with me?) who slowly went insane over a couple of seasons. The best part was when Amber and Tanya (wife of first captain and all around tart) were pregnant to Conrad (the second captain - are you still with me because it gets more convoluted!) at the same time. Amber and Tanya both had boys on the same day (because Tanya, who tricked Conrad into getting her pregnant, forced a doctor to perform a c-section even though she wasn't due for a few weeks so she could swap the babies) and even though Amber and Conrad had split up, they were sharing a house. Amber, Tanya, Conrad and the babies that is. Given that Amber is Indian (from India not native american) and Tanya is pale, Tanya put tanning lotion on the baby she was passing off as Amber's. Any hoo - the big tragedy was when Ambers pug dog squashed the baby that Amber thought was hers but was in fact Tanya (and Tanya's second husbands - turned out the baby was not Conrad's after all).

So, I hear you ask, why did you title this blog the tragedy of Footballers Wives? Well unfortunately I was one of the few people world wide who recognised its greatness so it was cancelled during the hiatus following season 5. The world is suffering from the loss of this show and if you can get a hold of it start watching from season 1 - I don't think you will be able to stop!

P.S. In the picture Tanya is the blonde standing next to Joan Collins and Amber is the dark haired one to the left.
