Seven Days




I've been watching Channel 4's 'Seven Days' over the last few weeks, and have found it surprisingly enjoyable. What I thought would be a guilty pleasure to catch up on inbetween the documentaries I normally watch online, has actually quite interested me.
The show is based around the community of Notting Hill in London, and follows a diverse range of characters around their day to day lives. What I quite like about the program is how it isn't all obviously set-up (like it is in 'The Only Way Is Essex'.. a real guilty pleasure), and there are normally some real life moments caught on camera, I especially like following Hannah and her family who are coming to terms with terminal illness.
What's increasingly interesting in the series is how the characters are all starting to interact and get to know each other as a consequence of the program, meaning the community has been given another means of communication. This is in part due to the feedback they have been getting through the programs 'Chat Nav' website, where the public give the characters feedback and advice about how they should tackle their problems.
