It wasn't so much childhood trauma as it was a soap melodrama. But I wasn't the protagonist and I soon realised that I had become redundant to their narrative. Part way into the 8th series I left to star in my own spin off at a boarding school set in the Chilterns where I had greater success. Oh, yes - there was the occasional well-choreographed cross-over, but nothing substantive; and I successfully developed my own independent brand. Years have passed and we don't do cross-overs anymore, but they may turn up for the occasional, one-scene guest appearance. I prefer it this way. It's not Made In Chelsea, but it's my own reality drama.

Started this a while ago with the first couple of lines. I wrote the rest watching an upper class family on a strained day out.
