Octavia's credentials are fine (a sitcom-star mum, a film-director dad), but she's never fitted in at Darlinham House School, where the kids of the super-rich and famous go to get educated (if you can call tai-chi and Sanskrit an education.)

Can a D-list disaster like Octavia ever become an A-list glamour girl? And will the cost be worth it?
