COMEDY WOMEN ON THE VERGE
W, 10pm
What happens if everyone you know is settling down, getting married and having kids, but your life seems to be spiralling further out of control?
This new comedy, set in Dublin, follows the lives of three thirtysomething women who are definitely not ticking the boxes they feel they are supposed to.
“Don’t worry, there are other ways to live happily ever after,” insists single parent Katie (Nina Sosanya), who has just backed out of an artificial insemination. Meanwhile, Alison (Eileen Walsh) wants to get back with her ex so she can have a baby – even though she hates him. And Laura (Kerry Condon) is having a fling with a guy from work.
Created by Lorna Martin and Sharon Horgan, who wrote Pulling and Catastrophe, this is adapted from Martin’s comedy memoir Woman On The Verge of a Nervous Breakdown.
Frank, fresh and funny, watch out for Horgan in a cameo as a much-needed therapist.
