I do not own any of this material or gain any profit from this video.
Who else remembers watching these book adaptations on CITV
its not fair
Bethany Swann me
Beth Swann rip citv 😂
Fuck the new programs this was beast
Absolutely
Despite this not following true to the books, I think it is an absolutely brilliant series in its own. The actors are great, the chemistry between the three girls is just as it should be and I loved it so much when I was younger. I did also read the books and I love them equally, just for different reasons!
They combined all the elements of the books but put a modern twist on them.
They obviously had to hide some of the darker elements used in Wilsons books for the audience it was made for
I am crying in the club right now!! I never thought that I would find this! This used to be my show back in the day!
Okay, Ellie is meant to be chubby and big haired, not slim and with model good looks. Seriously?
so true!
It's because that's how she viewed herself, fat and ugly. When, in reality, she wasn't!

Well no... I suppose your right but she DID have very frizzy hair, everyone in the books called her curly knob and her friend's nickname for her was Ellie-belly and Ellie-phant so she was chubby.
All good points, but i think the show is trying to represent that whatever you think of yourself isn't true, that all of us are beautiful
I'm a bit late lol, but yes she was chubby with glasses and frizzy hair. But the movie is only based on the book, sure in the book, Magda is not tanned, and her hair is blonde until she cuts it short and dyes it red, not dark and curly - they are so different looking in the episodes, but still the same personality. It was maybe hard to find actors that looked like the book characters :) x
I'm in Year 9 right now and Ellie definitely looks a LOT older than anyone I know, but I loved this series as a child so I'm not complaining!!
Same
I dont care if it's like the book or not, this show is brilliant and brings back heaps of memories
OMG major throwback 😂😂
This really wouldn't happen to year 9s in real life 😂
Billiejoeismyboyfriend ik I'm year 9 nearly 10 and I'm nothing like this 😂
Billiejoeismyboyfriend I would've thought that Ellie was a year 11
Billiejoeismyboyfriend yeh I'm going into year 10, all this NEVER happens 😂😂 still love watching it though
Ikr, I’m in Year 9 and I have NEVER even had the slightest hint of a relationship with a guy at all!
happens in australia
This is soooo early 2000s
I really don't know why they didn't wear uniforms. I mean, they would have made the 17/18 year old actresses look more like their characters' ages
When I first watched this I felt so much younger than her and thought year 9 was like huge know I've almost finished year 9 and I just remember her as so much older than she is in this 😂
the NOSTALGIAAAA!! when i first watched this they all looked so grown, but now i’m the same age as the actresses they look so young
Sigh.
Ellie was meant to be a rolemodel for girls who aren't tall, or skinny and supermodel looking. Just normal. But this is actress (No offence, she's very good) but she's nothing like the books.
I completely agree, I love the actress but not as Ellie. I always loved Ellie but the casting was all wrong.
So true!!! And, isn't Magda supposed to have bottle blonde hair? Stuff like this puts me off.
@@emmaolden3562 Yeah, she is supposed to be the beauty standard. Not saying this actress isn’t pretty, but Magda in the books was blonde, blue eyes, slim; everything about her fit the beauty standard. But in this, Ellie is closer to the beauty standard than Magda, whereas in the books she is fat with frizzy hair and glasses.
@@annabelvanpelt but i would say that the person playing magda is wayyy more prettier then the person that plays ellie
OMG I used to watch this all the time when I was younger! 😄😄
I thought Ellie wore glasses?
and i thought she was fat
and that she had curly hair and that she has a step mum and bro i read the book yesterday so i should know
Ikr
RainiKitty Tv shows arent representation of books when it's based on them. Look at Game Of Thrones, the characters nowhere look the same as in the book.
Yeah
Come on they could of tried a little harder to match the book.
Ellie isn't slim and pretty she's larger and has frizzy hair and glasses.
Nadine's alright though she's meant to be taller then Ellie and meant to be 13
And Magda is blonde
I love it its like dork diaries and Lizzy McGuire mixed together
The show has received criticism from fans of the book, a lot due to Ellie and Magda's appearances. In the book, Ellie is short, bespectacled, chubby, frizzy-haired, whereas in the television series, she is taller, thinner, has straight hair and doesn't wear glasses. Magda was also portrayed differently - in the series she is mixed-race with dark hair; in the book, she is caucasian and has blonde hair.
i don't see how having more poc representation is a bad thing.
@@rach3l202 yes
Zaraah Abrahams is black not mixed.
@@rach3l202 poc representation is a bad thing if it’s not following the original creators works. if the character is black or poc then fair enough, but if they’re not then it comes across as fake and forced diversity, that’s why it’s always important to follow the authors image
I absolutely love that Magda is represented differently.
UUHHHHMMMMMMM ...... Ellie........ she's not........ uhhhh...... so they took away the only thing that really made the book stand out? What? Is it too hard to give the main role to someone who isn't thin and pretty? To someone who actually FITS the character and matches what they're supposed to look like?I'm sorry but the only reason I liked the books was because the main character was a larger girl and being one myself it gave me a lot more confidence in life, so seeing that the show chose to IGNORE this factor has really irritated me! >:|
I guess it's the media :/
Yep and they missed out her stepmum and brother who were a big part in the book
@@lucygraham3573 this is pt 1
Lucy Graham they are in the series though...
I know right!
i watched this in seventh grade and i have watched it every year since. im graduating university next month ahaha!
I adore Dame Jacqueline Wilson! I am a published writer too, and I love her and look up to her soooo much! Also. I have just listened to this series on audio time
no way these kids are 13 😂
There 18 17 and 16 in real life when this was made
Yes,just 13 in these filmed CZcams episodes.
1 word:BASED. It doesnt mean it is going to be an exact replica. We all wish that ellie is fat and shy but still, it is a good movie. I really like it. I know this comment may get bad comments but most of you are slagging this movie off butin my opinion this is a good movie
omg i was obsessed with this show 5/6 years ago in primary school! so good hahaha
I don't see Magda not being caucasian being a problem since being caucasian was not a major plot point to her character (she was just flirty, which can be done even if she's mixed race). But the whole point of having Ellie as a main character was to give us, girls who where chubby, had spots, wore glasses and were definitely not in any way model-y a role model. Like, take book 2 when Ellie has bulimia - seeing it through this actress' Ellie gives it a whole different meaning, instead of showing how society disproportionately tells chubby people to change themselves, the point will be that anybody, even skinny tall straight-haired spotless girls can get bulimia (which is a perfect valid point, just not what I think Wilson had in mind).
Even tho this was 3 years ago, you are so spot on lmao.
@@Prinzyxox I stan 😂
@@minttushka what a slay 😂‼️💕
That is not what year 9 is like lol
I remember watching this at primary school.. I still have the dvds.
This gave me false expectations 🤣🤣
been scouring the internet for a high quality copy of this show, ive loved it for years and years!! i need my own copy
I remember my sister watching this as a teenager and me being a kid then I got to 14 and read the books and now I look back with nostalgia :')
Loved this show used to watch in in my preteen years.
They look nothing like the book charactes. Magda's blonde and nadia has long black hair and pale skin. 😑
Yeah ... I don't understand !
yeah
@Starr Child this came up like 15 years ago i really doubt it was anything to do w being PC, if being PC was a factor they wouldn’t change a fat character to be thin
Although this adaption is nothing like the books, I still enjoy watching it.
Please never take it down!
Although the characters appearances aren't that accurate to the books,I still enjoy this series!
I'm really disappointed because they could've made a really interesting series out of the book...
Omg blast from the past! I loved this series when I was a kid thanks so much for uploading these 😁
Okay so these girls are way too old, they're at least 16 while Ellie, Nadine and Magda are supposed to be 13. Ellie is supposed to be chubby and lives with her dad, her stepmother and her little brother. Magda isn't supposed to be black (no racism intended). Ellie and Dan are supposed to meet in Wales in a castle and not while playing a stupid game. Nadine is supposed to wear makeup. This is totally stupid.
I remember the book, Girls Under Pressure, Ellie tried to lose weight because she is supposed to be really fat...
Yes! Exactly! It has to be like the book!
True but its kinda weird because Magda looks alot like my bestie and my besties name is Magda....
Magda is meant to be a blonde bombshell!
Ikr!! Have they even read the books?!?!
You guys should read the book it is sooooooo much better
I KNOW RIGHT! Ive only JUST read the whole book, it took me.... Surprisingly only 5 hours! i just read the first page and BOOM! Before I knew it i read the whole thing. Its the best book ever!!! Also an emotional rollercoaster!! :)
I have it's amazing it only took me 2/3 hours to read lol (IM a fast reader and I love books)
I remember watching this and being so excited for year nine bc I thought it would be all fun and great but it turned out to be the most boring year out of my entire school career ahh
I actually quite like Magda. She has beauty and brains. Bare in mind, she's only young, she'll develop from the boy mad stage XD
yes!
I used to watch this when I was a kid, and the thing about it that stuck in my head the most was that at the beginning the sponsor message would go 'GIRLS IN LOVE: HAVING FUN WITH SHADERS AND TONERS'.
Funny, the stuff you remember :-P
i LOVE this show. I was (am) so sad there's no season 2..
For those who say it doesn't live up to the book, I didn't read it. But I think without comparision, the show holds its own.
Magda seems a lot less pathetic on TV than in the actual book.
Is that a good thing?
i'm watching this instead of studying for my mid-terms. I LOVED THIS SHOWWW~
"...okay you lying peanut, tell them it was a joke." lmfao :P
The actress of Ellie looks justtt like the girl from Lolita..the 90s version
Alright... I loved Jacqueline Wilson's books when I was younger but this is nothing like I remember them... Ellie was the shortest with curly hair and she was plump... And wasn't Magda blonde?!
Lord take me back to 2003
This is so cute :) I used to watch it so many years ago.. and I still remember a few parts of it!
Its Ellie whos supposed to be wearing glasses, not her dad.
she's also supposed to have spots not a perfect complexion
"I've just told the biggest lie ever... And I'm in goggles." :) LOL!
Never heard of this or read the book before in my life. I just saw this in BuzzFeed of good shows for girls in early 2000s. My aesthetic lol😆👍💖🌻
This is a dumb show/movie. Ellie is supposed to be chubby, with frizzy hair and glasses. She's supposed to make you feel normal. Instead there's just another skinny actress with perfect hair and skin. And they all talk like they're about 7 yrs old, with that actress poshness thing. It's impossible to follow this story like they are real people. Don't rate the show or casting choices, they should really have thought more about the audience. :(
That’s not very nice.
@@hannahcoleridge1332 it’s true
True
i loved this show! watched it the whole time!
love it... It's a difference experience when I watch the drama in its original language
Omg soooo nostalgic!!! I wish I could watch it somewhere
+Enchanted Dagger
Ikr 😞 Ellie was made so girls who weren't happy about themselves had someone to relate to! Casting a girl like that isn't fair to all the girls who looked up to Ellie. Ellie is a Typical, normal girl, who thinks she's fat and doesn't like the way she looks, but THIS "Ellie" isn't the Ellie any of us know. Its a thin, tall, model. I've personally always thought Ellie's pretty in the books, and this actress's just plain fine. No nothing about it. Plain fine, no faults, no frizzy caramel hair, no glasses, just fine.
well i'm in yea
9 and i didn't realise it was such a big deal at this year to get a boyfriend?
oh boy.. _how times 've changed_
It took me 10 years to find this again
Is this on Netflix?😭
I know its unnecessary for me to say this but in the book Magda has blonde hair and Ellie is fater, but I think Nadines as good as they can get
I loved this as a kid omg and Ellie was in Torchwood haha xD
To much Nostalgia, my childhood was full of this but I miss it.
WHERE DID YOU GET THE EPISODES?! I CANNOT FIND IT ANYWHERE ON THE INTERNET
The narration in this is cringe-worthy.
IKR 😳
YUCK SANDWICH!
Thumbs up for a REAL remake of this brilliant series!!!
Magda is really pretty😍
The actress for Nadine is okay, but the person whose job is to act as Ellie is supposed to be a chubby, plump person who is a little short for her age, with frizzy mousey hair and eyes with glasses on. Whereas the person who should get a job to act as Magda should be a whitish person with blonde hair (no racism intended). Id prefer the characters to look the way they look in the bks.
I don’t mind the fact Magda is black cuz melanin always winning but Ellie is supposed to have frizzy hair and glasses I don’t think she’s fat but mabye it’s mental health
LOL This girl does not look the age she is meant to be. She looks about 18-20
She was 17 I think when it first aired
I have been looking for this show for years! After diligently reading the long list of premiered shows in nickelodeon, i found you!
I LOVE Olivia Hallinan, she is a brilliant actress... :)
It's not the appearance it's the acting🚶🏃💃
Eggs? Anna?
this tv show was everything
Não importa quantos anos eu tenha eu sempre vou amar essa série
2024 and I randomly thought about this show
Same
Looks good but why can't the people who turn books into shows and movies never follow through when it comes to the storyline or at least character presentation, kinda annoys the people who appreciated the details. ahh
Ok, to everyone whose saying, "This is NOTHING like the book! Ellie has frizzy hair and blah blah blah" if you read the titles at the bigginning, it says, "BASED on the book...." Not "EXACTLY like the book..." Ok, so before you post a comment complaining about these series, think about what you're about to put without sounding stupid. ok? it's BASED not EXACT!
I first thought of the tittle ' Girls in Love ' . Hmmmm, Girls in love with eachother? LOL But now I understand! ;)
Yasmin Mohamed LOL so it’s not about a lesbian? Sucks
I love this film, does it even matter if it is like the book?
Aw, this is so CUTE! ...wait. I'm the only one thinking that? :O
i love this show..
i remember as a little girl reading these books and then finding this channel
Bullshit
Ellie is blond
Magda is white
And they all have an uniforms
Emszzi ...Doesn't Ellie have frizzy brown hair?...And she's really chubby...
No Ellie has red frizzy hair, is chubby and has a uniform, this show interperates her very different!
Everyone imagines them differently. In the book I thought it said Ellie had dark frizzy hair though.
You're complaining that a tv show decided to include a black girl and that a teen actress didn't dye her hair?,....,,,.....?
Ellie has brown hair.
I'm sick of everyone dissing this because Ellie's not fat and doesn't wear glasses etc...
Well (a) who would take a job as a fat bespectacled character
And (b) it says based on the book, not 'exactly the same as the book"
Yh but after reading a good book you'd want the tv series to be vaguely similar
That's just like saying who would take the role of a super model, all roles and people are equal just cause the role isn't considered "pretty" by horrible beauty standards doesn't mean it's a bad role and the fact they stuck to most the other characters appearances it kinda says something about the casting directors, don't you think 😊?
This show was awesome!
I love this show. It doesn't really show over in canada so I'm glad someone's posted it :) So funny and cool plus I love the main character
4:05 What is she wearing??
The early 2000s were a strange time for fashion.
Izzy xo clothes, 2000s clothes.
The clothes were from Topshop
In the book she wears glasses and where's uniform like in every school in Britain.
I'm guessing they didn't have the budget to kit a whole school out in uniforms, casual clothes are cheaper and extras can provide their own
i love nadine's ascent
it's by the sugababes and i'm pretty sure it's just the theme song of the show.. (:
This displeases me.
I am also displeased
I love this show but the title of it sounds kinda wrong lol
Why?
Where d'you think those million views came from?
I still love this...ah childhood memories:)
sigh, she is gorgeous.
Kinda shit. But I still love Jacqueline Wilson, she's my favourite. 😘😘😘
Used to love Jacqueline Wilson, but this is soooo cringy, doesnt match the book and the actors and actresses can't act!
There alright
I remember this show. They showed it on Showtime a few years ago.
Magdalena be like "that settles it no way I'm the only one without a dropdead gorgeous bf" and picks up ... That one !?
who is watching this in 2017
