Default Fleabag

Anyone watched this? I watched episode 1 earlier and was very funny. Very explicit, though.

All episodes are on iPlayer: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod...iesId=p040tlqx

Is this on BBC2? I remember watching it for about ten minutes and thinking that I should catch-up because it seemed like my cup of tea.

It's probably one of those things that I say I want to watch but never will though.

I think it was repeated on BBC Two but it's a BBC Three (online) show originally

I've seen it, throughly enjoyed it. It's pretty funny but takes a dark turn towards the end.

Series 2 episode 1 just aired on BBC One, but is also on iPlayer. Airs Monday at 10.35pm.

First episode was so good. So glad it's back! Can't believe it's been nearly 3 years!

Just watched the first episode, not sure it's my sort of thing, I'll give it a couple more episodes to impress me.

Been catching up with series 1 this week and I love it starts off as a bit of an asshole, and then suddenly grows so much richer and more complicated. The episode at the silent retreat is amazing, and I love the episode after with the dinner at her dad's. It's one of those shows where you really grow to care about even the side characters (her sister, her friend who died )

I'll watch the S1 finale tonight and try and power through S2.

Just seen the news today that it won't get a series 3, though

I take it that it's because Phoebe is really busy.

I thought the show was a huge hit?

Yeah from what I gather it's more of a "I want it to end" than "the Beeb want it to end" decision

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-47825572

Quote:
Fleabag won't return after the current series comes to an end next week, one of its stars has told BBC Breakfast.

"There will not be a third series," Sian Clifford said. "This is it."

Clifford, who plays Fleabag's uptight sister Claire in the BBC Three comedy, said the final episode would conclude with a "beautiful, perfect ending".

Her comments echo creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge's own declaration that Monday's climactic instalment would be "the final curtain".

"I have thought about it and there isn't going to be one," she told the BBC earlier this year when asked if a third series might be made.

Waller-Bridge is currently in New York performing the original one-woman play from which the TV series sprang.

...

According to one BBC Three staffer who has "sneakily" watched the final episode, though, Fleabag will go out on a high.

Declan Cashin said the show was "the perfect end to what has been what I firmly believe overall is one of the most perfect TV series this country has ever produced."

Speaking on Friday, Clifford did hold out a slim sliver of hope for Fleabag's legions of fans to clutch on to.

"I'm desperate to play Claire again," she said, revealing she would do her best to change Waller-Bridge's mind.
