Version of "Grapevine" (2000)

A very interesting premise though

This was an interesting way of doing things though - the constant cuts from one narrator to the other and the obvious difference in views that they had were quite funny. The stories were of 30 somethings with too much money and time on their hands, Thumper especially was allergic to commitment so the stories tended to reflect a rather self satisfied hedonism that I could only have wished for! The only problem I really had was that everyone used in the programme, either mainstay character or pass-through itinerant looked as though they were straight from the Elite Model Agency's books. - I've been looking for this to buy on either VHS or DVD but it seems that the powers that be don't have any faith in sales either.
