EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Netflix stole my idea for erotic show, claims 'Queen of bling' Celia Sawyer

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: 'I sent them a synopsis for a TV show called Kinky Rooms,' Sawyer, 58, tells me. Netflix said 'they were going to delete it'.

But unstoppable interior designer Celia Sawyer, star of Channel 4 ’s Four Rooms – and dubbed ‘Queen of bling’ – doesn’t care to see her ideas appropriated by others without a word of thanks, still less financial reward. Another was devoted to the creation of ‘a rock ‘n’ roll sex basement’, while a third was summarised as: ‘Meaghan and Dave seek five-star spa vibes for their intimate escape’. She and Nick were embroiled in two years of tit-for-tat wrangling with a neighbour who remodelled his house so that – they claimed – it overlooked their garden, prompting Celia to remark that she felt ‘very uncomfortable’ when relaxing in a bikini.
