[SDOACG] saison 4

Episode 1
Now a house owner Belle entertains young barrister Liam,whose downstairs problems she alleviates with a little wig-and-gown role play. Through him she learns that Stephanie is remanded in custody for money laundering. Whilst reluctant to take over the business she agrees to host Stephanie's daughter Poppy,who is innocent of her mother's work. Then Ben proposes to her.

Episode 2
Belle reluctantly takes over the business from Stephanie but finds herself being challenged by stroppy Charlotte,who almost gives the game away to Poppy. She feels under pressure and confides in Tim,a boy who has gone with her to prove to himself that he is gay. After meeting Ben's mother - who takes her aside to tell her she knows what she does and has read her book - she agrees that Ben should move in with her.

Episode 3
Belle has a new client, Harry Keegan,a detective sergeant who is handsome but slightly creepy since he knows a lot about her and is keen on having sex in dangerously public places. Poppy finds out at last that her mother and Belle are high-class call girls and the discovery leaves her shocked and angry. Belle's sister Jackie also drops by and,given their history,she is cool towards Ben.

Episode 4
Belle postpones a trip to New York to meet the director of a film based on her book to accompany Poppy on a prison visit to Stephanie. Mother and daughter merely end up rowing. Despite taking on one of Charlotte's clients, a middle-aged man who like to dress as a baby,Belle takes the moral high ground when she catches Poppy in bed with a boy she picked up in a bar. This leads to an argument with Ben and Belle taking the next plane to New York.

Episode 5
Belle lives it up in New York where the female producer and male writer of her projected film adaptation get a little too carried away enacting the scenario. She misses Ben and the feeling is mutual as he fights off the attentions of Poppy,whom Charlotte has tried to recruit as a call-girl. Belle is ultimately appalled that the finished screenplay of her book is no more than cheap,shallow porn and returns to England.

Episode 6
Belle returns from America to find Charlotte running the business. Furthermore Poppy has climbed into bed with Ben,giving Belle the wrong idea. She immerses herself in work,pleasuring a Japanese client who likes wrestling as well as winning back star client David from Charlotte. She also wins back Ben after Poppy admits he was innocent but this leads to him accusing Belle of double standards.

Episode 7
After Poppy has moved back to her mother's house Belle goes to a hotel for a vampire role play with film critic Ambrose but he literally dies on the job. In a panic Belle rings Ben but,after their recent cooling off,he has accepted a platonic date with Poppy. The appearance of Harry provides Belle with a shoulder to cry on but she resists his advances and returns to Ben.

Episode 8
Belle fins herself in turmoil after Ben asks her to give up her job. She finds her life further complicated with Harry being around and one of her clients who looks familiar.

alors bilan de cette 4ème et dernière saison... comme les saisons précédentes, j'aime beaucoup le ton décalé, l'humour so british, présent quasiment à chacun des rendez-vous de Belle (mes préférés restent l'avocat de Stephanie et le ptit jeune gay ^^). la balance entre scènes délirantes et dramatiques est bien dosée, j'avoue que certaines m'ont bien secouée :

Spoiler:

j'ai bien aimé le personnage de Charlotte, l'asiat' vetue de cuir pro du SM et blasée de tout dommage qu'on ne la voit pas beaucoup... parcontre j'ai pas du tout accrochée à Harry, le flic qui est présenté comme un "concurrent" de Ben. il m'a plus parut comme un psychopathe que comme un possible potentiel romantique . j'ai pas non plus accrochée à Poppy, au début je l'aimais bien mais après qu'elle apprend ce que fait Belle et sa mère, j'ai trouvé qu'elle faisait un peu n'importe quoi comme si les scénaristes savaient pas quoi faire d'elle... j'ai bien aimé le voyage à New York, et les essais ciné

évidemment la fin je me suis trop attendu à ça

Spoiler:

en tout cas j'ai beaucoup aimé cette série, dommage qu'elle soit finit ^^ Billie Piper est vraiment trop magnifique dedans, j'adore son appart, ses fringues, certains de ses clients sont vachement graou (James d'Arcy dans la saison 3 miam miam)
