This Way Up is back with even more meaningful laughs

Following Áine as she reacclimatised to London life, the series showed her reckoning with her reliance on others as well as what the future might hold post-rehab.

This Way Up review

Created and written by comedian Aisling Bea, it's been compared to hit series Fleabag. But we think you should put all unfair comparisons to the side, and accept this comedy series for what it is - sometimes sweet, sometimes sad, and often funny.

Helen Fear, Entertainment Daily, 14th July 2021

This Way Up series two review

TV so good it's indistinguishable from magic.

Lucy Mangan, The Guardian, 14th July 2021

An even funnier, kinder and more heartbreaking return.

This Way Up season 2, Channel 4, review

The sibling dynamic has shifted, but Bea and Horgan are still magic.

Rachael Sigee, i Newspaper, 14th July 2021

This Way Up is the perfect post-pandemic binge

This Way Up is the latest in a line of cerebral and whipsmart British dark comedies that reflect the imperfect salve of humor on the imperfect wound of grief.

Dana Gerber, The Boston Globe, 9th July 2021

Interview: Aisling Bea

For Aisling Bea there are three Edinburghs. One is where she performed a series of award-winning live shows, at the annual Fringe Festival; the other is where she lived during that heady, successful period of cutting her teeth on stage.
