Carol Midgley, The Times, 15th July 2021This Way Up is back with even more meaningful laughs

The This Way Up writer and star on the difficult second series, Love Island as a writing tool and rediscovering stand-up.
Tom Nicholson, Esquire, 14th July 2021This 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.

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.
