Comedy46 min per episode
Barbara Parker leaves Blackpool for London determined to break into 1960s television comedy, stepping into an industry run by men and built on narrow ideas about who gets to be funny. Gemma Arterton is Barbara, a former beauty queen whose wit starts carrying her far beyond the pageant world and into the center of Swinging Sixties show business. With Matthew Beard and Arsher Ali among the people she meets along the way, the series follows her rise as work, romance, and public attention begin to collide.
