Bad Girls was a British television drama series shown on ITV1 from 1999 to 2006.
Series two ended on a double cliffhanger, with Nikki escaping from Larkhall to be with Helen, leaving Helen to agonise over whether to contact the police, and Shell luring Fenner to her cell for sex, where she tries to kill him by stabbing him with a broken bottle.
Series 1-7 of Bad Girls are available on DVD in the UK (Region 2, UK and Region 4, Australia) with series 8 currently to be released in the UK on December 26th.

So we looked for girls who were comfortable having a camera in their face, who could articulate their thoughts and feelings and who seemed like they really wanted to be in the film.
So there were times when I felt that the material we had filmed was too personal and that it would have been too painful for the girls and their families to include it in the film.
I think the biggest challenge I faced was telling a compelling and dramatic story that was not at the expense of the girls or their families.

Reality Television (U.S) "Reality television" is a label that encompasses a wide range of non-fiction formats including gamedocs, makeover programs, talent contests, docusoaps, dating shows, court programs, tabloid newsmagazine shows, and reality-based sitcoms.
Yet, the genre's overarching characteristic is its claim to "the real" which it works to underscore through its aesthetic strategies (use of cinema verité techniques, surveillance video, low-end production values, or "natural settings"), its relentless obsession with the intimate, and its tendency to focus on ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances.
While not a popular strategy for American television, European versions of reality programs sold a service that would keep fans on top of program developments with regular SMS updates sent to their cell phones.
