If they didn’t plan it, they couldn’t have been more lucky. Promotion for Showtime’s British imort Secret Diary of A Call Girl began last week, and it couldn’t have come at a more opportune time. With the latest American scandal focusing around Elliot Spitzer, promoting a show following an “undercover” call girl coudn’t have come at a better time! And now that they’ve got the web page up and running at Showtime, it won’t be long before we see tons more promo pics, cast and character bios, and even some episode hints. Seeing as the show already ran in England, there won’t be any intentional ties to this latest scandal, but you can bet many will draw comparisons.
I, for one, already have it set to record in my Tivo, and can’t wait to see how Hannah/Belle’s life plays out over the show’s episodes.
ps ~ For those curious about the real life diaries the show was based off, head on over to Bell De Jour, the real-life blog the book (and then the hit television show) was based off!!! Who knew people lived such racy and fabulous lives?!
