Blackeyes

on BBC Two England

Afour-part series written by Dennis Potter.
'Blackeyes is my professional name. Well, it will be,' says the beautiful girl on the bottom rung of the silken ladder to stardom as a fashion model. But the story of her journey across the glossy catwalk floors has actually been told to
77-year-old Maurice James Kingsley. The old man has written an unexpectedly successful novel full of sexy revelations. But he has stolen the details of Blackeyes's career from the real experiences of his niece
Jessica. Jessica is furious.
She is going to try to rewrite sly old uncle's book. She needs to punish him. Trouble is, Jessica can't write ... and across the way someone is looking through her window.
