TV review - "Fleabag Season 2" (2019) *****

Jaw droppingly good. I mean, literally - my jaw would drop at how good it was. One of those sequels better than the original. The original deserves props for setting it up but this takes it to another level. The opening episode is magnificent - the fight at the dinner party. The relationship with the priest is extremely well done so is the stuff with the sister, the dad, the sister's creepy husband...

I've come to believe for a show to be a hit it needs two X factor performances. Dad and sister are good, so is the priest, but the X fact is Phoebe and Olivia Coleman.

So many great moments - the monologue about hair, the creepy husband's speech at the end, the corporate dinner. Uh, so good.
