Andrew Bullock: The Box
MADE IN CHELSEA SEASON 10 EP 8
Christmas has been and gone, and due to the fact that I am writing this column before the big event itself I can’t provide you with a run-down of the Christmas TV. So, that can wait til next week and in the meantime here’s my Made In Chelsea episode 8 run-down for those of you already missing the Chelsea gang!
Within seconds of this episode starting, Harney has physically assaulted Jamie on a bicycle. It looks pretty harsh actually and although everyone’s laughing about it I wouldn’t be surprised if shortly after filming he had to be taken to the Portland (for a caesarian). Also, this week Jess is dressed like Kelly Kapowski from Saved By The Bell.
Alik has landed in London. Wheeze says she’s feeling guilty that he had to leave his Leather Empire to come to London to deal with her wandering lips. She should feel guilty! En route from the airport, Alik stops by to confront Elliot (who has a weird eyebrow). Because he can remember what happened while Wheeze cannot, Alik thinks that the whole thing is Elliot’s fault. Makes sense.
For some reason, Toff and Richard are planning a joint birthday party even though last week he inserted his arm down her throat, detached her heart, extracted it through her mouth and threw it into the path of an on-coming fork-lift truck (AKA said “no” to a date). Nonetheless, she is drawing hearts around their names (and telling him about it) and ordering balloons that spell out “Congratulations Toff & Richard”.
Proudlock’s cut his hair and has come to console Alik who makes it quite clear that he will not stand for “another episode” involving Wheeze and her roving eye.
Tiff decides it’s appropriate to befriend James’ ex-lover Lilly, who looks like a younger version of Alice Beer from Watchdog. Lilly is horrendous. She claims that she doesn’t fancy James anymore. Really, Lilly? We all know you’ve become friends with Tiff so you can go round her and Lucy’s house and chop up all of Lucy’s bras.
Mark Francis sends the Bat Signal into the air so that Victoria can come and help him stop Toff from ordering a 3-tiered wedding cake for her and Richard’s party. The pair of them burst into the cake shop, as Toff is mid-bite, and ask what the hell she is playing at. Mark Francis smacks her hand, like “a Victorian house master”. Toff explains that she hit on Richard and he said no. “Do you think Eve was going around asking Adam out on a date?” Victoria asks her. To be fair, its not like Adam and Eve could have gone for a Pizza Express, poor things.
