Footballers Wive$: Extra Time

Footballers Wive$: Extra Time is the unnecessary cousin to the superior Footballers Wives. It seems like a collection of deleted scenes that ITV did not seem good enough to put on the main show. Characters are poor, including those god awful twins belonging to Bruno, and the story lines are mediocre at best. Seb Webb (great name there) is a miniature version of Bruno Milligan with same mannerisms and vacant look. Anneka or Anika or however you spell her name is a diet version of Tanya Turner but crap. The first episode of the second series had a psychotic nurse called Jeanette Dunkley hitting a coma patient's genitals in order to gain a response. She said it was part of "special treatment" - surely the NHS has not gotten that bad? Watch it if you have not got a total fix of Footballers Wives but do not expect anything of the same quality.
