My attempt at a recap:
Short version
- Sophie Hinchliffe has been even more crass, self-centered and out of touch than normal. Difficult to imagine, I know.
Long version
- Sophie Hinchliffe took 2 / 3 days to put up a Christmas tree with no soul, no imagination and no taste. In addition to the tree, her Christmas display features a toy train track that's broadly the same size as the Circle line on the Underground, an empty cardboard box and a photoshopped dog and/or son and/or Father Christmas
- She's also gone OTT on advent calendars and Elf on the Shelf, because she has to be the centre of attention and couldn't give a shit that many of her followers will be struggling to afford Christmas this year, let alone buy things for a dog the size of a small European country and a toddler that can't comprehend Elf on the Shelf
- She also does the above because she's obsessed with creating a childhood for herself, in her adult years. It doesn't take a doctorate in psychology to work this one out.
- She's terribly thin and needs a good meal, preferably one she hasn't cooked herself
- She's advertising F&F clothing for Tesco, however she's doing a terrible job. From the state of her adverts none of the tops can stay on the wearer's shoulders, and the trouser legs are too short. And they're grey of course, like her home and her heart.
- She still doesn't know the name of her second-born son, and needs constant reminders by way of personalised clothes and tat.
I am intentionally not calling her Mrs Hinch because it's her character's name and Sophie Hinchliffe needs calling out. She is not your friend, she is not some ditzy Essex housewife, she's a salesperson who encourages excessive spending to finance her own lifestyle, whilst relentlessly pushing unrealistic ideals of motherhood on to others.
I do think we should keep track of what her Christmas purchases and/or gifts are worth. Surely she's going to spend several thousand before the big day itself?
