You cant blame Denise for going for a job at The Paradise when she finds out  that her uncle cannot afford to employ her, it's just a shame that The Paradise is the reason for his hard times and the way she handled the dress she was asked to model that was two sizes too small was impressive

1x02 Episode 2

Denise's idea about Miss Paradise Pink promotion was impressive but Miss Audrey being given the task of leading the promotion was not the best idea and poor Sam being used a a scape goat when she kissed him nut at leased he kept his job when she admitted it was her

I'm not surprised Denise was stunned to find out that a customer had abandoned a baby in the store but using the situation as a free publicity stunt was interesting, Miss Audrey banning Denise from having any more ideas was bizarre but she knew she couldn't pass Denise's ideas off as her own and know wonder Clara was behaving strange when we found out the baby was hers and probable the little girl from the home

1x04 Episode 4

Miss Audrey getting a mysterious illness that was responsible for loosing her voice was probable a blessing in disguise but amusing to watch her trying not to talk and Denise being put in charge temporarily was bound to upset the other girls and getting Miss Audrey back for a birthday surprise was nice but the way she spoke to Denise was predictable

You just knew Miss Audrey would steal Denise's idea when she came up with the idea to attract more custom in ladies wear but so glad it backfired as she took the credit for it, I did like the line "come this way gentlemen we'll show you our corsets" but what Burroughs the barber did was terrible and he probable got what he deserved

Pauline offering to man the counter with the new attraction of exotic love-birds was interesting but after an expensive bird flies away I'm not surprised she became panic-stricken, Denise being unable to keep her true feelings from Moray any longer was expected but the way she blurted it out was amusing it's just a shame the kiss was interrupted and Clara trying to stir up trouble was predictable

Denise’s ingenious ideas to get the street traders to compete against the Paradise and increase their profits started of so well until Katherine turned up across the road but her second attempt by buying all the remanding fabric was a great retaliation

1x08 Episode 8

It was obvious the note Arthur delivered to Denise was from Moray but I thought he was marrying Katherine for her family money and Katherine insisting the wedding goes ahead after he told her was bizarre but with her father owning the land Denise's uncles shop is on will make thing awkward, the discovery of the dead body in the water they were bound to suspect Jonas
