Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Adapted from Israeli hit 'Little Mom,' but Beaumont completely rewrote it for Hull's specific working-class humor — the original's Tel Aviv energy became something utterly, stubbornly Northern.

Trivia

Lucy Beaumont based Toni partly on her own failed acting ambitions; she famously quit drama school to do stand-up instead.
