Gemma Arterton's sixties comedian is missing the laughs.

Review: Funny Woman

It's a little bit on the box-ticking side at times, with racism and class covered as well as sexism, but there is more than enough plot activity in the first episode to keep you watching.

Funny Woman review

Sky's 1960s-set series swings too wildly between old-fashioned farce and serious social issues.

"I love physical comedy, people running into walls and falling over. I've always loved it."

Josh Stephenson, Metro, 6th February 2023

Funny Woman review

Funny Woman is exactly what the title suggests, but it's also more than that: It's heart and drama with a 1960s aesthetic and a main character who's easy to fall in love with.
