#COVID-19 CATCH UP TV - Normal People

Normal People was one of the talks of lockdown for binging TV. I have finally finished the twelve episode run on STAN.

The Irish drama was a BBC Three and Hulu co production with a fair amount of male full frontal nudity.

Based on the 2018 novel of the same name by Sally Rooney, the series follows the relationship between Marianne Sheridan (Daisy Edgar-Jones) and Connell Waldron (Paul Mescal).

I struggled with the two leads as high school students, thankfully this was only for the first few episodes.

It's high drama and there are a lot of tears and feels. Was it worth it though?

The show originally aired on BBC Three in the UK in late April 2020, same as on Hulu. I can't remember when it launched on STAN but we have it now. You can stream it anytime or if you have watched it already, what did you think?

The series was nominated for four awards at the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards.

So if you have watched everything else, maybe give this a go, it was a bit dramatic for me, however Ireland looked beautiful through the camera.
