Emily in Paris season four review: Steamy scenes on a rooftop, a menage a quatre ... Emily's back in the City of Love, writes SARAH RAINEY


SARAH RAINEY: Flouncing its way into August, a whirlwind of day-glo designer outfits and romantic frippery, Emily In Paris - the show all serious TV critics love to hate - is back.

Emily's best friend, aspiring Eurovision singer Mindy (Ashley Park), is caught in her own love triangle, while her marketing firm boss, the indomitable Sylvie (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu) is wrestling with personal and professional loyalties, as she chain-smokes her way through long Parisian lunches. And location scouts must have had a ball selecting backdrops for the action, with scenes taking place courtside at Roland-Garros, in a nightclub themed like an indoor beach and on the boating lake outside the house where Claude Monet lived. This is Emily In Paris at its finest: frothy, funny storylines that tackle real issues (betrayal, commitment, insecurity, identity — there's even a short-lived '#MeToo' plotline), backed up by witty dialogue that keeps millions of viewers hooked.
