I'm pretty sure I'm not the intended audience for this (childless student) but my mum got me into Motherland. I cackled at the scene with the mulled wine in the bedroom, and I basically love anything with Diane Morgan in. I really like the cast in general.

i hate watch Motherland because it reminds me of my lost years in North London Nappy Valley. This is like a documentary 😂

I’m not the audience for it at all, since I’m childfree, but I bloody love it! I also loved The Letdown. Both fantastic shows.

I cried laughing at Amanda’s harmonizing when they were painting in the Christmas special 😂 I adore Lucy Punch, she’s brilliant.

Also fun fact for any fellow childfree Motherland fans - Diane Morgan is also childfree by choice and says being in Motherland just cements her choice 😂

New series started. They've gone full Covid, without the covid, instead it's a nit pandemic. Comb > shampoo > comb just doesn't have the same ring to it as hand > face > space.

I thought it was inspired! Can’t wait to watch this season

My favourite bit was when Amanda thought Anne used to work for Greggs

Yeah, it was a great bit of misdirection, and totally believable for the middle class mums it presents.

I love that Anne used to be Global Development Manager for GlaxoSmithKline or whatever job title it was.

Love love this series! I liked the bit where Kevin said he called the police on himself for locking Gill in the attack 🤣.

I died at the Greggs bit. Anne is my favourite.

“what’s the female equivalent of a man cave?”
“panic room?”

Just finished the new series, loved it. Julia is just like how my mum was when I was at school. We laugh about it with my sisters all the time. She’s much more relaxed now we’re all adults 😂
