Everything I Know About Love

Its 2012 and four bright young things end up in a house share in Camden and discover themselves and the city.

Production values were good, well directed, written and shot with an intelligent under-stated score. Cast was strong in depth and for me the lead Maggie played by Emma Appleton stood out, she really bossed it.

Based on a true story its more 'When Harry Met Sally' than 'I Will Destroy You' - its happy to be an entertaining light comedy/drama and it works really well, lots of snappy dialogue and laughs and it rings true. Congrats to all involved.

Dolly Alderton is the mistress of observation. I have seen this several times and still scratch my head. The four girls are so different but brazen, robust, vulnerable, excitable but so real. Emma Appleton as Maggy is so annoying but wonderful whilst Beth Powley as Birdie is so wonderful but annoying.

The tracks are wonderful choices... especially in episodes 5 and 6 where Stand on the Word from the Joubert Singers and Goodbye England from Laura Marling completely nail it. I felt I had been there and ok I had.... Greenwich Village or Camden or maybe Belsize Park. I so wanted to be there again. The most heart wrenching moment was the gentle lecture from mummy of Maggie played by Sophie Thompson. Verbal beauty and literal care exposes writer Dolly as one of our best writers. I'll stop waffling and let you watch it. If you don't like it, no worries you probably haven't been there.

Wow I loved this completely. As a 20 something living in London in 2012 I felt everything about this show as of it were written about me. The focus on female friendship is perfect and so overlooked in romantic genres today, the storyline between birdy and Maggie brought a tear to my eye. You can see Dolly all over the production of this too, and it's fantastic as expected. Let's hope they renew it for a second season.

Oh it was all of the things. I absolutely devoured it. As a fan of the book I knew it would resonate but good fecking god it was like a slap in the face which brought me right back to my early twenties. So raw. So honestly and so relatable. It's wonderful to finally acknowledge the importance of friends in a world obsessed with romantic love. Thank you for such a masterful and honest showcase of friendship.

Really enjoyed the adaptation of this much-loved memoir. Brought me right back to living in London in that era - the writing and soundtrack nailed it. Great production and performances. I really hope this gets renewed so we can see more of these characters.
