Press
The usual millennial-in-the-city dramedy gets a necessary revamp via this mental health memoir. This week, sex-obsessed Marnie (Charly Clive) makes a new London friend (Joe Cole from Peaky Blinders), who not only helps guide her to a diagnosis but introduces her to felting. And no, that's not a weird sex thing.
