In season 3 Belle is struggling with not only being Belle and Hannah but also with being a successful published author. She needs her clients to provide her with material for her new book so we see her have all sorts of experiences in the quest for ‘good material.’ Juggling three personas is hard enough, but when her sister Jackie arrives to stay out of the blue (her husband has had an affair) Belle’s life just gets even more complicated. We also introduce a new character – Duncan – Belle’s publisher. Duncan appears to be the archetypal English man – intelligent, restrained, mature – and Belle becomes very attracted to him. She believes this is a relationship which may work – after all, he knows all there is to know about her. But does she know all there is to know about Duncan?

Keen Eddie is an American action, comedy-drama television series that aired in 2003 on the Fox Network. The series follows a brash NYPD detective who goes to London when one of his cases goes sour and remains to work with New Scotland Yard. The basic premise of the show bears a close resemblance to the popular 1980s British series Dempsey & Makepeace, the only notable difference being that the female partner has been replaced by a female housemate. Stylistically, the series derived inspiration from British feature films by Guy Ritchie, such as Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch. The soundtrack and incidental music for the first episode was provided by British techno duo Orbital. Daniel Ash of Love and Rockets scored the rest of the series.
