Review: Fleabag, Series Two, BBC Three/BBC One

So follow that. After the seismic success of the first series of Fleabag the action picks up 371 days and some hours later, with the family gathered for an important celebratory dinner. But this is Phoebe Waller-Bridge's Fleabag, it's never going to be an uneventful meal is it, as an early scene in which a bloody nose is wiped makes abundantly clear.

Review: Fleabag, BBC Three, episode 5

It has taken me a while to get round to writing about the fifth episode of Fleabag. I don't know what the journalistic equivalent of being speechless is but that's how I felt after watching it. It's not quite the same as writer's block, it's just when you see something that is so visceral and powerful on a gut level as this it is hard to find the right way of expressing your response to it.

Fleabag: modern life is rubbish is BBC3's newest comedy

Greedy. Perverted. Selfish. Apathetic. Cynical. Depraved. Just some of the adjectives that the titular Fleabag uses to describe her life in the opening episode of this new BBC3 sitcom and over the course of the half hour, she definitely manages to tick the boxes on all of the above.
