THE GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE

Friel the love, but not as we know it

Anthology shows seem to be all the rage. Super-producer Ryan Murphy has enjoyed success with the likes of American Horror Story, while Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith’s Inside No 9 and Steve McQueen’s Small Axe have been well-received British examples. Now there’s this 13-part series executive produced by Steven Soderbergh and inspired by his 2009 film of the same name. The first two seasons are being made available: Riley Keough stars in the first as a law student who works as a highend escort, while Anna Friel takes the lead in the second. StarzPlay, from Thursday
