Irenie Forshaw, The Week, 9th October 2024Alma's Not Normal: How anger and spa breaks fuelled new series
Red hair. Pink fur coat. White helmet. Green tartan trousers. Huffing and puffing uphill on a rickety old bike towards the job centre. Not quite as graceful as ET on two wheels but that first scene introducing the titular character in Sophie Willan's sitcom Alma's Not Normal created an instant connection with a new audience.
