Heart of Glass

By Claire Ahuriri

Players: 10

Genre: Reality TV

Another in a series of trashy romance reality TV shows, ‘Heart of Glass’ follows Debbie and Chris, members of the well-past-their-sell-by-date Blondie cover band Platinum. After a bitter break-up, both Debbie and Chris are looking for love, and this show has combined their quest, giving them a selection of men and women who have to face a bunch of challenges in the quest for love, fame, and of course, the prize money. Only eight contestants are left.

Ratings have been falling, and the producers are desperate to wrap things up before getting cut from the air. They are ending the season sooner than was expected, and the contestants have an ultimatum: do your part to raise ratings tonight, or face missing out entirely on your appearance fee. It would appear that just such a clause was hidden in the small print of the contracts they signed.

Today is your last chance. Get the love. Or at least get the fame and the money before your 15 seconds are up.

Note: This game will feature use of a video camera in an adjoining room as a ‘confessions’ room and the resulting in-game confessions will become a part of the post-game breakdown.
