In the latest episodes, which Lee insisted on filming 'as live' to capture the essence of theatre, viewers are treated to a wild mix of scenarios including a robotic sex doll and a shambolic hotel stay, not to mention a rundown campervan, stints as TV extras, and a cheeky nod to the chaos of Oasis concert ticket sales. Interestingly, many fans have forgotten that Catherine Tate initially played the role of Lucy in the pilot, which was later taken over by Megan Dodds in the first series, before Sally, of Beyond Paradise fame, assumed the part.
