The Dry Series 2 review

I watched the first episode of The Dry in 2022, quite enjoyed it, but didn't return to the Dublin household of Roisin Gallagher and her mad, boozy family, the Sheridans and their shenanigans. But based on the start of the dramedy's second series I think I'll give it another go.

The Dry, Series 2 review

Nancy Harris's deliciously dark, witty writing has strengthened since the first season, and allows star Roisin Gallagher to truly shine.

The Lovers review

The 40-minute opener barely gives us enough to judge, but there's an undeniable chemistry between the stars.

The Lovers review

A mildly famous man meets a distinctly not famous woman, but don't mistake this for Starstruck, because its tone is far more abrasive.

The Lovers review

Johnny Flynn is a joy to watch in this newsroom comedy from Sky Atlantic.

I talk to Roisin Gallagher

I recently caught up with Roisin Gallagher, to discuss the positive portrayal of Belfast in The Lovers, what it was like filming in Belfast and why this story isn't your typical predictable rom-com.

Johnny Flynn and Roisin Gallagher interview

Sky Atlantic's charming, absurd new romcom The Lovers isn't just about the sparks between its leads - it's in love with Belfast, too.
