  • Loving this show!

    The show is great and I love their content! Seriously makes me want to visit London and have a sampling of their lives.

    I just wish Hanifah wasn’t interrupted so often, or talked over, or told her opinions are incorrect. I’d loved to hear more from her unfiltered and uncensored.

    Great job ladies! You make my day a bit sunnier!
