BBC Radio 4 - Woman's Hour, Phoebe Waller-BridgeHow has PhoebeWallerBridge coped with her extraordinary success? And what difference has her work had on how we see women on TV? Find out today on Woman’s Hour: Lovely chat 🥰 Love PWB - but a whole programme devoted to her?! Get a sense of proportion . There are more important things in the world than a TV series and a new book. Disappointing. Really enjoyed this. I have had those reservations about the very privileged world that Fleabag portrays - but it’s her truth, it’s completely honest about her ‘world’ - which is fair enough & makes sense. I love her honesty & openness - honesty is always good 👍
