Netflix has season 1 and BBC are re-running season 2. I could watch these again and again, so funny and accurate. Especially the in laws coming round to help when actually they're just totally useless and makes things harder Grin

LOVE Motherland. Have also been rewatching on Netflix.

IheartNiles · 05/10/2020 21:19

Love it. Especially #shitshop and the swimming pool episodes. Liz and Kevin are wonderful. It feels cozy and brings back memories of the school gates.

Yup. Stereotypeland. Hilarious.

Chickenandrice · 05/10/2020 21:24

Love it! So accurate 😍

SnakesOrLadders · 05/10/2020 21:25

Absolutely love it we definitely have a Kevin and Amanda at our school gate- dread to think who I’m most like! Very true to life.

Chickenandrice · 05/10/2020 21:33

I think I recognise a bit of myself in almost all the characters

NoisyBrain · 05/10/2020 21:38

I bloody love Motherland! I stalked bumped into Anna Maxwell Martin in the supermarket pre-lockdown and, abandoning all dignity and self-respect, gushed at her about how awesome she is (whilst completely failing to recognise the lesser-known actor she was standing with Grin )

She was totally lovely and witty and indulged my fangirling with good grace. I've not seen her in there since, mind you...

StanfordPines · 05/10/2020 21:39

I love it. I hope there is another series?

Chickenandrice · 05/10/2020 21:39

I think I read there is plans for a third series

PineappleUpsideDownCake · 05/10/2020 21:41

Oh loved this so much. Was hoping the thread was about a 3rd series I was so excited!

mum2jakie · 05/10/2020 21:43

Also love it. Brilliant TV!

YellowHighlighterPen · 05/10/2020 21:43

The huge pig!🤣🤣🤣

BikeRunSki · 05/10/2020 21:44

I would highly recommend Workin’ Moms on Netflix for fans of Motherland.

bluebearss · 05/10/2020 21:47

Also got excited about a potential series three! Bloody hilarious. Liz is my favourite of the mums. 'Just the right side of give-a-fuck' as Meg puts it in season two!

anniversarywoes · 05/10/2020 21:50

Liz nailed it when Amanda smugly explains that her and her ex dh are 'co parents'
She hits her with - 'just wait until he gets on tinder love, let's see how much of a co parent he is then' GrinGrin

Love Motherland! Has anyone watched The Duchess on Netflix? V.funny.

Chickenandrice · 05/10/2020 21:58

What is the duchess?

Chickenandrice · 05/10/2020 22:13

Watching duchess now 😁

Hobbes8 · 05/10/2020 22:20

I loved it! I’d seen both series but hadn’t seen the pilot until it came on Netflix - the bit where shes starving because she’s stuck in Liz’s flat and all the food is frozen, then tries to eat the kids spag Bol out of the bin...

GarlicSoup · 05/10/2020 22:22

Absolutely love the ‘Cat’ magician Grin

The80sweregreat · 06/10/2020 17:59

The swimming pool one is hysterical! So funny. ' why are you dressed like Hilary Clinton' ! Lol
I love the single mum : she is fab.

The80sweregreat · 06/10/2020 18:41

Amanda is such a bitch, but you also feel a bit sorry for her too.
It is a great little comedy.

HyggeTygge · 06/10/2020 18:43

I think Amanda is brilliant actually and so is her amaaaazing shop Wink

The80sweregreat · 06/10/2020 19:23

Amanda's shop has probably bombed over lockdown! She is now selling her over priced tat on Facebook I bet. Trying to only appeal to her more affluent friends!

GlummyMcGlummerson · 06/10/2020 19:50

@HyggeTygge it's not a shop it's a store Grin
