For those who have resisted an All 4 binge of Kirstie Swain's inspired comedy-drama, about a woman plagued by a rare OCD that floods her mind with sexually intrusive thoughts, tonight's series-ending double bill will come as a treat. Now, best friend Helen arrives from Scotland, and Marnie is overjoyed that she seems to understand her problem.
