'Call Girl' slammed by women's charity
Billie Piper's ITV2 show Secret Diary Of A Call Girl glamourises prostitution, according to a women's charity.

Poppy Project chief executive Denise Marshall told the Sunday People that the show is not representative of the reality of prostitution for young women.

Piper returned to the role of Belle on Thursday, but Marshall branded her association with the programme "obscene".

She said: "She is an actress who has certain choices... For this privileged young woman to misrepresent the reality of prostitution is appalling."
