There will be blood. Literally. Not like 'Oooh Daniel Day-Lewis' because this isn't his story. It's Marjolein's. Talking about body stuff, specifically blood. Which everyone knows is the most hilarious fluid known to man. This is not gore for gore's sake. This show has the potential to save lives. Also: jokes. No 3 in The List Hot 100 (only two left to kill). Independent's top 10 best comedy shows of 2023. 'Impish... upbeat, able to mine an everyday observation to almost absurdist lengths' ***** (List). 'Remember the name. This is a star in the making' ***** (One4Review.co.uk).
