Absolutely bloody loved this. Need to find series 1 online and watch it again (when I watched it I ws off on mat leave and cluster-feeding a baby and not sleeping so it’s like a hazy memory. I want to really refresh my head on it before next week’s episode.)
And the priest was hot.

All of Series 1 is on iPlayer

Fabulous. Cheers.

And the priest is Andrew Scott, innit?

Yes. Dreamy and brilliant.

(although looked disturbingly from some angles like Declan Donnelly in that episode.)

Watched this last night. Finished and watched it immediately again afterwards. Amazing TV…

Favourite throwaway laugh:

Claire: This sauce is disgusting.
Waitress: Is everything alright?
Claire: Mmm, delicious!

I love OC, but I think PW-B gives her a good run for her money.

SO much talent in that show.

Also found it interesting how they dealt with a very sensitive subject

TW miscarriage

We don’t talk enough about miscarriage. I thought this was beautifully done. ‘Get your hands off my miscarriage – it’s mine’. Triggering I am sure for many of us. I was in tears but smiling through at this bit. Amazingly, sensitively handled.

It really was amazing. Did Fleabag say anything until the Miscarriage bit at the table? Hope Martin gets his comeuppance and also pretty convinced Claire is having an affar in Sweden. Oh and Hugh Dennis makes another appearance at some point.

Finland.

Yes, several things, including the bit about pinenuts on salad, and questioning whether the priest was actually a priest.

Should have hedged my bets with Scandinavia.

Watched this AGAIN last night. Will probably just keep re-watching until I ruin it for myself :sunglasses:

Episode 2 doesn’t quite hit the heights of episode 1, but it was still great. Liked the scene with the therapist.

Went to bed early last night as I wasn’t feeling well, but STOKED about catching up with this tonight. I’ve already watched ep1 three times.

Ah just watched episodes 2 and 3. Absolutely brilliant, rarely do I care about tv charachters but this totally suckers me in.

Interesting they’re starting to reference the 4th wall breaking too (directly when talking about how she has “lots of friends” who are “always watching” to the therapist then again when the priest picks up on her mugging to the camera) Maybe it’s looking for a way to stop using this device in future series?

Finns don’t consider themselves Scandinavians, at least a lot of them told me this.

(Yay Fleabag btw)
