Kim’s got a massive crush on her new best pal, the beautiful, opportunistic, self-absorbed Maria “Sugar” Sweet. But she also has to deal with Tom, the stalker next door, her brother Matt, who walks around with a fish bowl on his head dreaming of outer space, and her mother Stella, who shags the handyman under the nose of her caring, clueless husband Nathan. Find out how Kim survives in a world full of lies, delusions, obsessions, and sexual hangups— and how she sorts out her addiction to Sugar—in this sneak peek of Channel Four’s sleek, sexy adaptation, soon to be a hit series on here! TV. Consider yourself warned: this SUGAR RUSH is habit-forming and will leave you wanting more!
