Summary
In Season 1, Fleabag attempts to rekindle romantic fires to distract her from the mayhem of her life, helps her inappropriate brother-in-law and visits a female-only, silent retreat.
In Season 1, Fleabag attempts to rekindle romantic fires to distract her from the mayhem of her life, helps her inappropriate brother-in-law and visits a female-only, silent retreat.
It’s hard to remember any other television show apart from Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s bitterly dark comedy that was watched by a comparatively small audience and yet punched through to become a cultural touchstone.
BBC1 starts a run of repeats of both series as we meet Fleabag (she is never properly named) as she flirts unwisely on buses, sleeps with weird and/or controlling men, veers into rages that last a heartbeat and does something unmentionable as she watches a Barack Obama speech in bed on her laptop.
There are some great cameos from big names – Olivia Colman, Hugh Dennis – but this is very much Waller-Bridge’s show (she’s also the writer). She’s created a character who dances perilously close to the edge, but despite Fleabag’s failings you’ll be willing her not to fall off.
First shown online on BBC3.
