After two seasons on ''[[Doctor Who]]'', actress [[Billie Piper]] burst out as a TV star, UK's sweetheart, and the de facto [[Girls Need Role Models|role model for a nation's worth of little girls]].
Line 26:
* [[Fan Service]]: It's Showtime and ITV, what do you expect?
* [[Hide Your Pregnancy]]: Billie Piper was pregnant during filming of the second series. It wouldn't make much sense to have a pregnancy written in, so they instead put her in unflattering and baggy dresses. It is actually quite noticeable if you know to look for it.
* [[High -Class Call Girl]]
* [[Lipstick and Load Montage]]: The opening credits.
* [[No Fourth Wall]]: What is this "fourth wall" of which you speak?
* [[Pretty in Mink]]: One episode has her wearing a short, white rabbit cape.
* [[Role Association]]: [[Doctor Who|Rose Tyler]] is turning tricks for Gabrielle Benson, where she ends up servicing [[Doctor Who|the Eleventh Doctor]], while desperately trying to keep boyfriend [[Dead Like Me|Mason]] from finding out.
* [[Secret Identity]]: The main character goes by her real name "Hannah" in everyday life and "Belle" for her work as a call girl.
** "Bambi" is also an alias. In season 3, her real name is revealed to be Gloria.
* [[UpperclassUpper Class Twit]]: Byron is an example of this, though he is shown to genuinely love and care for Bambi.
* [[Undisclosed Funds]]: We never really find out what Belle's rate is, except that "She charges by the hours and charges a lot"
** Subverted, as she disclosed it half-way through Series 1 (It's £105,000/year, by the way).
