“Brilliant. The characters are very easy to dislike because of their sense of entitlement, arrogance and complete disregard for others…..and yet itu0026#39;s so easy to like this show. There are some laugh out loud moments. I noticed one review gave this 1 star because the bad language and sexual nature was unnecessary. I disagree. I am aware that a lot of wealthy people use foul language freely. Itu0026#39;s also worth remembering that there are a lot of wealthy people that are bored by the type of things the rest of us find enjoyable. They have the money to go more extreme. For me, this show could easily be a realistic look into a wealthy family dynasty. Itu0026#39;s simply marvellous tv.”
