It’s frightening what goes on when two great friends want the same part and one of them will do almost anything to get that part. Friendships are left in tatters as tensions mount but eventually it’s the cool, calm and collected nature of one of them that shines through in the end as well as the realisation that tantrums and under-handed action jujst doesn't work. Budding and aspiring young wanabee actresses will love this terrific series.
