“She wants to identify as a feminist, but she feels like she's letting feminism down all the time.” 👭 Phoebe Waller-Bridge tells us where she and Fleabag stand on the F word (plus 8 other things we learned...)

“Vicky and I would joke that our boyfriends were our mistresses to our marriage and our love story. Which doesn’t go down so well with the boyfriends, I've got to say.

” has got to be among the show’s most quotable lines, and Phoebe admits Fleabag’s relationship with feminism is “complex”. “Very comfortable… as long as it's not without the other side of the story,” clarifies Phoebe, who also crafted Killing Eve’s brutal hit woman Villanelle.“Villanelle is interesting because she's so incredibly vulnerable and childlike moments before or after she commits this heinous act of violence. I’m not into a character who's just going to go and shoot lots of people… I want to see the whole picture.

“That wasn't in the script actually. I was debating whether or not he should say it back for a while and then when we got on set, [Andrew] was like, ‘He has to say it back! Because ‘it will pass’ being the last thing he says could be a bit harsh.’ When that happens, that's when I just feel a little bit less alone in the world, because I'm just like, ‘You too? Oh thank god!’“I had a conversation with my sister where I was like, ‘Why is hair so stressful? And why does it feel like it's everything?’. We had such a sense of relief talking to each other about it, and then that goes away but a kernel of it stays in the back of my mind.
