THE OLDER WE get, the more attune we have become to Carrie Bradshaw’s many, many shortcomings.
At the height of Sex and the City’s popularity, we were spoon-fed the idea that Carrie was the ‘everywoman’, and we believed it.
We know, we know; so sue us.
But according to late 90s and early noughties television analysis, she apparently struck the perfect balance among the foursome.
Unlike Samantha, she wasn’t too brash, unlike Miranda, she wasn’t too cynical and unlike Charlotte, she wasn’t too, well, basic.
But with the benefit of hindsight, we realise Carrie verged on the insufferable on many occasions, and we’re keen to see how well you remember her worst moments.
1. What did Carrie do when Miranda put her back out and phoned her for help?
Screened her call.
Told her to call an ambulance.
Sent her boyfriend around to check on her.
Dropped everything, and went to her friend's aid.
2. How did Carrie react when Charlotte didn't offer her money to buy her own apartment?
Accepted it
Slapped Charlotte across the face

3. What was Carrie's reaction to walking in on Samantha and Joe, the WorldWide Express guy in a 'compromising' position?

Told Samantha 'that' was something she would never do.
Belittled Samantha in front of Joe.

She saw a ghost.
It was all just too country for her.
8. What was Carrie's nickname for Natasha?
Stupid Stick Figure With No Soul

9. What did Carrie do when her new pal, Oliver, dared chat to a guy at Bungalow 8?
Demanded to be included in the conversation.
Told the guy that Oliver was taken.
Threw a drink on them.

10. What did she do when her friend Susan Sharon gifted her with a cashmere scarf?
