Desperate Scousewives axed after just one series.

It has been over a month since desperate Scousewives executive producer, Mal Young announced that Channel 4 bosses had axed the reality TV show Desperate Scousewives.

It seems that the show received negative coverage on social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook, despite starting out positively with over 562,000 viewers tuning in to the first episode – which was over 100,000 more than E4′s usual viewing numbers.

Many viewers didn’t warm to the characters in the way in which the cast and crew of the show had hoped. Ideally they wanted the show to hit the heady heights experienced by TOWIE and Made in Chelsea.

Many viewers felt that the series was overly scripted and did not feel as natural as TOWIE.Naturally, the cast were disappointed that there would be no second series. So what will the cast do now?

Scousewives resident gay couple, Chris and Mark will continue to run their salon – with a renewed demand for the latest celebrity beauty trend – the scousebrow.

Head Scousewife Amanda Harrington and O’Toole sisters Gill and Debbie have teamed up to launch Scouse Boutique which will feature all the latest glamorous Liverpool fashion. The Desperate Scousewives dresses and style received a lot of interest from girls wanting to get the look. Local boutiques like April’s Boutique and Miss Francesca Couture got lots of attention and enquiries for their lines.

Layla Flaherty has made a few public appearances, recently doing a lingerie fashion show for a charity event in Manchester’s Bijou Club. At the same event was fellow Scousewife, Elissa – who as well as a few public appearances has returned to her journalist job as a columnist for Gossip Monthly Magazine.

Rioutous top scouse bird, Jodie is continuing her career as a make up artist – and fulfilling the rising demand for her signature scousebrow.

We are in no doubt that the Desperate Scousewives will continue in the limelight of Liverpool and remain the cream of Liverpool’s socialites. We will be following their antics with great interest and coverage on here, despite E4′s foolhardy decision not to currently run with series 2.

Desperate Scousewives Episode 3

Christmas is drawing nearer and of course our Scousewives are busy preparing for the festive season as we see Amanda and Chloe hitting Liverpool centre in search of Christmas gifts and outfits.

As well as all the festivities for Christmas, the eldest of the O’Toole sisters, Gill is about to turn 30. At a dinner party with salon owner couple, Chris and Mark – Gill confesses how she despairs at being single at the age of 30 whilst her friends are all married and having kids. She emotionally reveals how she feels she is being left on the shelf.

But that disappointment soon disappears as preparations for her 30th birthday party begin. The girls hire a city centre apartment where they spend most of the day with their hair in rollers, forming an orderly queue for Jodie’s infamous scousebrows.

The O’Toole sisters hit the town with their friends glammed up in bespoke dresses from Miss Francesca Couture. Gill gets a great surprise when out of a gift-wrapped box jumps her very own “Butler in the Buff” – the usually quiet and shy, Adam Ramsey.

As the girls leave their venue and head off to a Chinese restaurant, the party spirit is dampened for Debbie as she is confronted by her ex, Danny – who is smarting from the public humiliation of everybody knowing about his failed serenade outside Debbie’s window. He is given the complete brush off by Debbie after she saw him kissing Sam outside the Hilton Liverpool whilst promoting George’s new club, Playground.

Emotions boil over at the restaurant when it is revealed that Mark has confided in Jodie about his desire to have kids with Chris. Naturally, Chris is not best pleased about their marital issues being discussed outside of their relationship and a heated and bitter argument ensues in the toilets.

Meanwhile, resident Romeo, Joe has convinced Jaiden to put in a good word for him with Elissa as she has been ignoring his texts and calls. Elissa finally folds after some persuasion and agrees to meet Joe for dinner.

After a frosty start where Elissa tells Joe  ’Even when you pour your heart out you go home with her (Layla).’ She confesses that she still thinks fondly of him and she is sad about what happened in their relationship. She leaves the restaurant to join Gill’s party just as Layla shows up – with the impeccable timing we have become so accustomed to with her.

Seizing the opportunity to corner Joe, she asks “What’s going on? Looks like you and Elissa are getting back together.” Joe sharply tells her that it is “none of her business”.

 

Desperate Scousewives Episode 2 – The Lowdown

Episode Two kicks off with Jaiden and Elissa on a video conference where Jaiden is filling Elissa in about his confrontation with Amanda Harrington at the recent Juice FM Style Awards. Jaiden is seen sporting a rather fetching face mask. Elissa can’t quite believe that Amanda swilled him with a drink after Jaiden called Amanda’s hair extension’s sh*t.

This episode we get to see the popular Miss Francesca Couture Boutique – a popular haunt for the glamour girls of Liverpool to stock up on dress-to-impress outfits. Aspiring model, Chloe is with Amanda and she reveals that she’s secretly nervous about the forthcoming Miss Francesca Couture Charity Fashion Show in which Chloe will be modelling.

Debbie drops by to see the lads football training. Danny invites her to the event where he is DJ’ing – but she declines as she’s also modelling for Miss Francesca Couture. Danny sneaks a quick kiss through the railings before Debbie heads off to prepare for the show.

At April Boutique, the workplace of Sam and Layla, we see the girls discussing their on-off relationships. Layla reveals that she finds the mind games between her and Joe challenging and shows explicit photos of Joe on her phone in response to Sam asking her why she keeps going back when he treats her so badly. When Chloe and Amanda come into the boutique, Layla cannot hide her contempt for Amanda – if looks could kill!

The comedy gold bit of tonight goes to Jodie Lundstram, who gets packed off to the beauty academy to learn how to spray tan…only she hasn’t arranged a model to demonstrate her newly learned skills. Poor unsuspecting Chris is dragged to the academy and is promptly turned into one of Willy Wonka’s Oompa Loompas – well apart from a pasty white ass and green underarms where the fake tan has reacted with his deodorant!

At Francesca’s fashion show, the boys turn up to watch the girls strut their stuff on the catwalk. Amanda is less than impressed that Layla has been selected as one of Miss Francesca’s models. She tells her straight that her hungover performance on the catwalk was unprofessional.

Once again, with impeccable timing, Layla shows up in the middle of Joe and Elissa’ heart-to-heart. She sure picks her moments.

Danny has big plans to win over his old flame, Debbie and he ropes his good friend Adam into his plan – which basically culminates in him standing underneath Debbie’s window with an electric keyboard which he plays whilst serenading her…well, we say serenading in the loosest term.

At the Hilton Hotel in Liverpool, it’s the promotional night for George’s newest venture – the exclusive Playground club. He has roped Debbie, Layla and the others into selling exclusive memberships to his elite club – at £500 a pop. Sweet, unassuming Chloe tries to cajole Sean Clancy (brother of WAG Abbie Clancy and Fleetwood Town footballer) into buying her a membership on a “buy one, get one free” deal. When that fails, she just asks George outright for a free membership. Her request falls on deaf ears.

Despite all his grovelling and telling anyone who will listen that Debbie is marriage material, Danny just can’t help himself. When Debbie goes in search of him, she discovers him outside in a passionate clinch with Sam – much to the disgust of Debbie.

Desperate Scousewives Cast Member Jaiden’s Twitter Death Threats

The most vocal star of Desperate Scousewives, Jaiden Michael was stunned into an unusual state of retreat on Twitter earlier after receiving a torrent of hate tweets on the social networking site.

Dubbed as “Britain’s most Brutal Blogger” he is usually the one making comments and expressing some strong and often negative opinions on stars such as Jodie Marsh and Lily Allen – comments so nasty that he was thrown off MySpace.

He suddenly found himself on the opposite side of the fence as an overnight celebrity thanks to the first episode of Desperate Scousewives which first aired on Monday to a half million strong audience and got mixed reviews.

Many viewers from Liverpool were upset and felt that the show painted an inaccurate picture of Scousers and life in the city.

But nothing prepared him for the backlash and barrage of abusive tweets that cited him as a paedophile, attacked his sexuality, race, weight and physical appearance with the worst threatening his life.

and the comments continued to get more and more sinister:

Clearly some of tweets were crafted to provoke a reaction  - such as this one in response to Jaiden’s twitter post saying that he hoped sensational boy band, JLS were watching the show.

Jaiden initially retweeted hateful comments with witty comebacks and tongue-in-cheek replies. But he was clearly frightened, hurt and upset with those messages that were darker in their content and those that contained thinly veiled threats. He declared that E4, the channel that broadcasts Desperate Scousewives monitors the twitter accounts of all the Desperate Scousewives Cast and take action against threats and libel.

Jaiden even replied directly to some instead of retweeting, stating that those who called him a paedophile would be held to account:

Jaiden reply to JackRuddin

It is clear that as he is one of the most active cast members on the internet given his status as a professional blogger, he is bearing the brunt of people’s outpouring of negativity towards the show. Jaiden has demonstrated that he is as  thick skinned as the celebrities who have been on the receiving end of his outspoken opinions in the past – but we do wonder how he can remain standing after such a tidal wave of abuse and hope that E4 offer some media training to deal with the extremities that come with becoming a celebrity and having a presence on social networking sites.

What do you think? Is this payback for his nasty comments? Should he learn a lesson now that the boot is on the other foot? Or are these twitter posts extreme and do you feel sorry for Jaiden?
