Has anyone seen the TV series Fleabag?:eek::D
It tells the tribulations of a young lady in her early thirties living in London and who has a pretty complicated love/sexual life as well as a complicated relationships with her siblings and her parents.

(neither big spoilers nor the best gags in the trailer)

I must say that I was pretty surprised, a bit gross and very explicit but quite good show overall. Moreover I thought it was an Amazon production, but it appears that it has been broadcast on BBC3 too.

It's a stunning show. Initially I was put off by the trailers for the show. All the talking to the camera stuff isn't funny and never works.
There was a thread on another forum I'm on and the posts were all positive. I thought I'd give it a go one Saturday morning.
I watched all the episodes in one go. I was left floored and an emotional wreck. It stayed with me for a long time too.

It's been advertised as a comedy but it's so much more than that.

It's up there as the best TV show of the year, along with Stranger Things.

Yes, it's more of a dramedy besides the 4th wall.

In truth, at the end of the show I was wondering whether all English girls were like that, French girls are said to be or to play "bitchy", but man!...:eek:

Never heard the term 'The Fourth Wall' before, thank you.

As for all English girls being like that? A braver and more knowledgeable person can answer that one.
