Strong, and extremely sexy, pilot epiosde, i'm definitely sticking with this.
To say that Billie Piper is hot in this is a ridiculously vast understatement.

She's using her real accent on the show, the show takes place in London.

I thought it was good but too short. I was expecting more than the standard 20 minute American half hour show.

Personally I think that would make for a great second season.

I'm intrigued enough to tune in and see how this plays out. I'm on the fence about Piper's looks. I think it's her teeth...
When she embraces, your heart turns to stone
She comes at night, when you're all alone
And when she whispers, your blood shall run cold

Same as. It's a direct import, like when HBO broadcasted Extras in the States. It's cheaper than remaking the whole thing, and the smaller episode run suits itself to cable.
The smuttiness and cursing makes it perfect for Showtime

Straight on, she's pretty hot. Straight on, she looks like Kylie Minogue.
Profile and 3/4 views accentuate her horsey mouth and prominent brow. From the side, she looks like a cave woman.
Now from behind...

PERFECT assessment! Her mouth is quite "horsey"; it looks like she has three full sets of teeth in there. Honestly, I keep getting reminded of "Planet of the Apes" when I look at her. Yet I still find her sexy as hell, and she looked AWESOME in that Cleopatra wig. (I'm peculiarly attracted to a few other actresses who seem a bit "horse-faced." Jaime Murray in particularly springs to mind, and I find her smokin' hot).
I'm waiting for my father to accidentally discover this show or see an interview with Billie Piper, because I can guarantee she'll be yet another entry on his "Women Who Are Too "Homely"/Ugly To Be in the Performing Arts" list.

I call those girls 'flip-top heads'. Remember that toothbrush commercial, it was a cartoon animated drawing where in order to reach all his teeth, the cartoon flips his head open to reach, displaying all of his teeth. These types look like they could do that.
Another is Julia Roberts, classic flip top head.

Just so there are no misconceptions, I'm PAINFULLY aware that Ms. Piper would have NOTHING to do with my fat ass even if I was giving away yachts and suitcases full of money...

Not to be a traitor to my own thread but this show lost me 3 weeks ago.
Is it sexy? Yes, but it's also, I don't know, weird.

Re: Showtime's 'SECRET DIARY OF A CALL GIRL'.
I record the show because I "tape" WEEDS before it, and I still kinda dig it. It's not a "groundbreaking" show by any means, but it is enjoyable enough to keep me watching. Also, I realize now that I'm absolutely RIVETED to "those TEETH" (and the puffy cheeks that "hide" them) so much that I've Netflixed the first season of "Doctor Who" because she's in it, and I can continue to be amazed by her dental state.
Teeth aside, I think she's absolutely gorgeous. A Google image search will bring up hundreds of pictures that will prove it. The preview of the next episode shows her involved in some sort of fashion shoot, and she looks AMAZING.

I watched one episode, but that was it. There was nothing to interest me there, not even the lead.
