This was a refreshing documentary. Many documentaries made about celebrities is like an extended version of cribs "look what I have now". They come across materialistic and out of touch with reality. This documentary was different. From start to finish the most important aspect of Giannis' life was his family. His drive, success, and future ambitions were never about himself or his ego; they are fuelled by those he cares about most. He doesn't play down the hard work but shows where determination can get. Success is stepping stones and the support of a loving family is the most important thing along the way. New respect for this man. He's a true inspiration.

In the book this was a low part of her life but the series got it all wrong. The fact that Simone traveled all the way to Thailand in the book and Daisy had left without even saying was such a strong statement about her mental state. The series got this very wrong. Not to talk about the Irish guy instead of the Italian, the lack of enabling from Nicky's side, and the unnecessary presence of Simone and her girlfriend.

Yes, there was the seed being planted for emotional abuse but this really just didn't hit the mark.

I know sometimes a series needs so stretch out the storyline but I thing this could have went into a much better direction.
