Such Brave Girls
Created by Kat Sadler
On BBC Three
A darkly comic sitcom about three deeply flawed women bound by family dysfunction, where the humour comes from their self-sabotage and the pathos from their desperate need for love.
Sisters Josie and Billie and their single mother Deb navigate life armed with nothing but poor judgement and self-esteem exclusively tied to people who couldn't care less about them. They're vain, selfish, heavily in debt, pathologically desperate for affection and bursting with misplaced, terrifying love.
