British Comedy Guide, 3rd March 2022In My Skin review
I hesitated about reviewing the second series of In My Skin. While I've seen it described as a comedy drama I watched the first episode and felt that there wasn't much of a comedy element to it. On reflection though I concluded that it is so good, so powerful and so destined to scoop up a handful of awards and is not getting as much coverage as it clearly deserves I should chip in.
