'Jane Campion’s latest foray into television, while featuring admirable performances, sees the writer–director stray too far from what she does best. '

'An hilarious and no-holds-barred account of dating with an attitude of minimum expectation and maximum respect.

After the break-up of a 15-year relationship, journalist, writer and broadcaster Helen Razer decided to set herself a task to get over her grief and start living her life again: to go on 100 dates between Feb 2013 and the end of that year. The Helen One Hundred is her disarmingly frank and no-holds-barred account of those dates and what happens at the end of them. Will she be over her ex? Will she have met her true love? Will she have had fun and got herself back on track after her heartbreak? All will be revealed in The Helen One Hundred, a brilliant idea written in Helen's trademark hilarious, revealing and self deprecating style.' (Publication summary)
