Netflix released a new show titled ‘Dirty Lines’, which is set in 1980s Amsterdam and tells the story of a student who joins one of the first phonesex lines in Europe. Here’s a review of he show from the new european.
Dirty Lines was created by Pieter Bart Korthuis, who also worked on Black Widow and Red Widow. The series landed on Netflix on 8th April 2022 and told the story of student Marly Salomon, who started working for a racy adult phone chat line during the time when the Netherlands were going through a huge social change. Some news outlets like the Manchester Evening Standard have done stories on it and you can find another review of it here by the Hollywood insider.
The official synopsis reads:
“The story of Dirty Lines starts in 1987’s Amsterdam, at a time when Dutch society was changing rapidly. Psychology student Marly Salomon takes on a side job working for a brand new firm: Teledutch – a company started by two brothers, Frank and Ramon Stigter, who established Europe’s first erotic telephone lines.
“Frank and Ramon become rich overnight and Marly finds herself immersed in this wild and rapid transformation. The final years of the Cold War sparked a sense of hope and inspired a new generation to celebrate life to its fullest.”Amsterdam became the center of that cultural revolution with a radically new form of music: house and a new love drug: XTC. The erotic phonesex lines offer the opportunity to experience anonymous sex in a new way, changing the morality of its consumers, but also very much the people creating it.”
Sounds pretty wild. To think these two brothers were where it all began, the pioneers of the XXX international phonesex industry. Dirty Lines features a varied cast who are all pretty well known in their native country for roles in TV and film. Full cast list:
- Joy Delima
- Minne Koole
- Chris Peters
- Charlie Chan Dagelet
- Abbey Hoes
- Benja Bruijning
- Yari van der Linden
- Julia Akkermans
That’ll definitely be a show for the Babestaton crew to get stuck into.
