British TV series from 2001.
The plot is about the
experiences and
love lives of a clique of six 20-somethings in
London. Noticeable is the funky
camera work, reminding of a
video clip. Each
episode assumes the
point of view of one
character, who speaks from
the off revealing their thoughts.
So far, there are 3
seasons with 56 episodes total.
Interestingly, here was also a shortlived
remake for the US from 2002
with an entirely different cast, save for
Emily Corrie.
The main
UK cast of
As If are the following:
Emily Corrie - Suzanne 'Sooz' Lee (
the artsy type with a
relationship problem)
Paul Chequer - Jamie Collier (the slighly crazy, upbeat and
impulsive one)
Caroline Chikezie - Sasha Williams (
hot tempered, in an
on-off relationship with Rob)
Benjamin Waters - Robert 'Rob' Conway (all pent-up
aggression and
passion)
Jemima Rooper - Nicki Sutton (Sooz'
counterpart, rather flirtatious)
Orlando Wells - Alexander 'Alex' Stanton (the
sensitive gay guy)
Masterminded by
Brian Grant.
