Nary a single woman with self-respect in RIVALS Episode 1

Nary a single woman

Based on the nature of this series, I have to put out a disclaimer before I start.

Woah! It’s only 9 seconds in and the first thing shown is someone’s bum.

They are having sex inside a plane’s toilet.

Look at her face while they are doing it.

This is he, Rupert Campbell-Black

This is he, Rupert Campbell-Black

and he has the women going crazy for him. Look at their faces:

The opening credits is beautiful.

This useless man (Deputy Prime Minister) said this is the reason why HIV is on the rise:

And this motherfucker! This useless being has a mistress…

I love this line.

David Tennant Skewer the bastards on air RIVALS

So.. there is something going on and I need to explain it. Declan O’Hara, this guy

Declan O'Hara, this guy

Is courted by Tony Baddingham, this fellow

Tony Baddingham

to leave the BBC and join his network. He also gives Declan a signing bonus and moves Declan into this massive house in the English countryside of Rutshire.

English countryside of Rutshire.

His wife, Maud hates the change. She called the house

Maud O'Hara

Their daughter, Caitlin is excited about the move because she would get to live close to Rupert Campbell-Black. According to Caitlin

Caitlin O'Hara

It is the foreshadowing for me. Caitlin thinks that Rupert is going to fall for her mother or sister.

Caitlin O'Hara

At least we have someone with some self-respect.

Lizzie Vereker

She is an author, Lizzie Vereker, who writes “dirty books”.

Declan is a misogynist and I will tell you why. Cameron Cook, this lady

Declan and Cameron Cook

says “Hi” and offers him a handshake. Look at what this dipshit did:

Declan and Cameron

Yes, he gives her his suitcase.

Declan O'Hara and Cameron Cook

Oh, lest I forget, Cameron is his boss but he thinks that SHE is a man.

Cameron Cook

Oh, she is up against racists too.

Traggie, this girl

Agatha Taggie O'Hara

is the first to see Rupert naked.

Rupert Campbell-Black

Maud is/was an actress and her marriage with Declan isn’t quite right.

Declan and Maud O'Hara

Are Tony and Cameron a thing? I say this because they’ve been giving weird vibes plus this exchange between Cameron and the studio assistant…

Cameron Cook

Is making me wonder. Hmm.

What was this look between Rupert and Taggie?

These couples are two sides of the same coin. In this coupling (Fred and Valerie Jones), the wife polices the husband’s eating

Fred and Valerie Jones

While in this coupling (James and Lizzie Vereker), the husband polices the wife’s drinking:

James and Lizzie Vereker
Fred-Fred (as his wife calls him) and Lizzie

Maud hates Declan’s guts and wants to sleep with Rupert.

Maud and Rupert

These douchebags. They have blackmail material on Declan O’Hara.

Tony and Declan O'Hara Insurance

Maud is parched…

Maud O'Hara

That’s her looking at Rupert’s bum. Declan noticed:

Declan O'Hara

Rupert is sleeping with this man, Paul Stratton’s wife

Paul and Sarah Stratton

Her name is Sarah and she was the one Taggie saw Rupert playing naked tennis with. When they entered the room, Taggie’s face changed.

Taggie O'Hara

Tony used Taggie’s face to discover that Rupert is having sexual relations with Sarah. Tony is going to be a villain I would love.

Tony Baddingham

Watch this sequence:

Declan and Maud are toxic. They fight only to have make-up sex.

Maud and Declan

What did I tell you?

Tony Baddingham and Cameron Cook

See y’all later.

Are you going to watch this?
