There's a common assumption about Chinese girls; Studious. Conservative. Polite. Well think again!

Chinese Burn follows the escapades of three 'normal' Chinese girls: Elizabeth the failed Chinese daughter, Jackie the feisty struggling actress and Fufu the Buddhist princess, fresh off the plane – as they negotiate the trials of modern life in the capital. From sex to relationships, failing careers to just about paying rent, getting drunk to getting in fights – they're visitors from a scary superpower and they're taking over London.
