Morgan shines
14 August 2020
I only found this show through BBC iPlayer and only the first six episodes are there. Now I want more! Diane Morgan is finally been able to show off her talent and this is screamingly funny. From scenes of tarantulas being hammered flat in a banana factory to our heroine having a large tattoo removed from her back with a small cookery gas burner (and using the scab as an ashtray) you never know what's coming next. Morgan's facial expressions throughout all her misadventures are a joy to behold but make you wonder if she's in any pain. There are one or two 'star' guests but most of the cast seem to have come from Ricky Gervais' After Life (which also starred Morgan) although there is no character crossover. There are also some clever nods to other movies but no spoilers here. Highly recommended and I'm off now to watch it again.
