In 1996, Davis co-wrote the mini-TV series ''Wilderness'' with Andrew Davis, from the novel by Dennis Danvers.〔Wilderness review, (),''Artists Direct''〕 She also wrote an episode of ''Soldier Soldier'' in 1997, titled "Line of Departure".

The series centres around a group of 16/17 year old pupils at () Comprehensive School in London."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ATV Today )〕 Davis herself said about the show: "As far as I know, there aren't any other comedies about girls of this age. Inbetweeners has shown what a rich area for comedy this age group is - but girls are very different and I thought they should have their own show."〔(Interview with Bernadette Davis about Some Girls on the BBC website )〕 The ''Daily Mirror'' made the first episode of ''Some Girls'' "Tuesday's must-see TV" and described the show as "Energetic, irreverent and real". ''The Stage'' online said: "the relationship between the quartet of friends is well observed and firmly rooted in recognisable, realistic emotions". Comedian Jimmy Mulville, Managing Director of Hat Trick Productions, says: “This second series of Some Girls confirms Bernadette Davis as one of the funniest writers working today. We're lucky to have her.”〔 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bernadette Davis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
