Farewell Fleabag: the most electrifying, devastating TV in years


Phoebe Waller-Bridge raised the bar so utterly with her hit show’s second, and final, series that you have to shake your head in astonishment … then go back to the start.

That’s it. The End. Or at least, according to Sian Clifford, who plays Fleabag’s sister Claire in the show that has become a breakout hit in the UK and US: “It is complete.”


Series two, which has just wrapped up, marks the end of the sitcom about a Londoner grappling with the death of her best friend, a troublesome family, running her own business and navigating a tangle of unfulfilling and masochistic relationships. In truth, Fleabag waving goodbye to the camera should have been all we needed to know that this was the last we’d see of Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s character – whose actual name we never learned. But who thought one of the final shots would be of a CGI fox?
