Julia Davis' pitiless comedy concludes. Sociopathic Emma (Davis) and fantastically pliant Sally (Catherine Shepherd, who heroically grounds the whole endeavour) are now married and, tonight, they meet the real-life, actual Sean Bean. Then an attack of food poisoning takes an unexpected turn. Few comedies are as unflinching.

Taylor Maple, Bustle, 11th November 2018Interview: Julia Davis
Experiencing Julia Davis's brand of British comedy is like getting into a very hot bath: At first, the water is so warm as to be uncomfortable, scalding, and prickly, so much so that you might even think, Why am I doing this? But give it just a bit longer, and it feels great, nourishing, and even like you're doing something for your health. (And then, eventually, you must get out.)
