is a adaptation of Holly Smale's coming-of-age book series which tells the story of geeky teen Harriet Manners whose life is transformed when she is scouted by a modelling agency in London. Here's everything that happened in episode one..
. The first episode opens with Harriet on a fashion runway, looking every inch a supermodel. But as her voiceover says, Harriet has always tried to blend into the crowd and remain invisible at all times.
.. that is until she was scouted by a modeling agency, and that all changed.
The episode then flashes back in time and we meet Harriet as a normal teenager. Harriet's voiceover tells us about how she has an eccentric neighbor, Toby, and we meet her best friend Nat. Nat and Harriet have been friends for years and even have matching friendship necklaces, which even Harriet admits is a bit uncool.
As we follow Harriet through her day at school we discover that she is brainy and always getting called into the head teacher's office, not to be told off, but to be commended for her work. Harriet is also the target of school queen bee Lexi Roberts and her sidekicks Oli and Liv (Olive for short) who thrive on capturing all of Harriet's clumsy mishaps by videoing them on their phones. Nat and Harriet are getting ready for a school trip to London Fashion Week, and while Harriet can't think of anything less exciting, she is going to support Nat, who is convinced that she will be scouted by the famous fashion scout Wilbour Evans.
