The Duchess trailer: Katherine Ryan plays a no-nonsense mother in new Netflix sitcom
Comedian is creator and star of parenting sitcom
Netflix has just dropped the trailer for Katherine Ryan’s new motherhood comedy, The Duchess.
The stand-up comedian, who regularly appears on panel shows such as 8 Out of 10 Cats and Mock the Week, is the creator and star of the semi-autobiographical sitcom.
Ryan plays the single mother of a young daughter who is seeking a sperm donor for her second child.
When things don’t go to plan, she decides to proposition her unsuitable ex-boyfriend who makes a deal with her to father her child for £10,000.
Netflix described the series as following the “powerful and problematic choices of a fashionably disruptive single mum living in London".
Ryan’s previous acting credits include the sitcoms Campus and Episodes.
The Duchess launches 11 September on Netflix.
