Review: The Duchess, Netflix

It'll be interesting to see how the comedy goes down in America as the programme has a strong English feel - there is a Richard Curtis-y sunny West London vibe to the look, with a splash of Motherland and Catastrophe thrown in for good measure.

The Duchess review

The comic deftly plays an uber-bitch single mother in this semi-autobiographical Netflix series - though there is little nuance behind the unapologetic laughs.

Eleanor Stanford, The New York Times, 11th September 2020

The Duchess review

Katherine Ryan's single mum comedy leaves you cold with toxic levels of immaturity.
