Motherland. Who are you?

Calling all fans of Motherland. Which character do you most recognise in yourself?

I’d love to say Liz because I admire her confidence & attitude, or Meg because she seems to have it all, but realistically I’m much more Julia.

How about you?

Anne

SmugglersHaunt · 22/06/2025 23:23

Definitely Julia

When my daughter was young I was probably 90% Julia. Now that she is grown up I’m definitely more Liz (with the drinking ability of Meg)

Anne here too. Apart from the sucking up.

PurpleChrayn · 22/06/2025 23:24

I’d like to say Liz as I’m northern and a bit wry but I’m honestly more Julia.

IsthataYes · 22/06/2025 23:31

A mix of all!

LizFromMotherland · 22/06/2025 23:35

My username might be a clue 😁

spiderlight · 22/06/2025 23:36

I'm 100% Anne.

Ladyglittersparkleseriously · 22/06/2025 23:38

I thought I was Julia but I did a quiz and apparently I'm Kevin!

PinkNeedsAHoliday · 22/06/2025 23:41

I'm Meg minus the drinking!

LeaveALittleNote · 22/06/2025 23:43

I’m definitely most like Julia

I’m a mix of Kevin and Anne. Tragic. But the others are awful.

AngelsWithSilverWings · 22/06/2025 23:44

Another Ann here. I had a knack for being taken in by a series of Amandas who would use me for lifts and childcare only to be dropped like a stone once I was no longer needed. I got tougher once my DC got to secondary school age and actively avoided getting to know any other parents.

tostaky · 23/06/2025 04:39

Julia - with less booze
Love that series!

Crazierthanye · 23/06/2025 18:08

My DS14 says Liz. I’d have to be honest and agree 😆

MyIvyGrows · 23/06/2025 18:11

In my NCT group and at DC’s clubs, I’m Liz.

At the school gates I might be some sort of terrible Meg/Julia hybrid.

IveGotAnUnusuallyLargePelvisISwear · 23/06/2025 18:12

Julia probably. In that I’m shrill as fuck and always get things a bit wrong even when I try.

PizzaSophiaLoren · 23/06/2025 18:14

Julia - pissed off with an incompetent husband!
