As both programme creator and star, this Channel Four series earned a BAFTA win for Aisling. It's a comedy-drama following the life of Áine, an Irish woman living in London, navigating her way through life after a breakdown. Some very poignant moments throughout, in particular between Bea and Sharon Horgan who plays her sister. Series two has been promised to us later this year, but the first series is available on Channel Four's catch-up service 4oD. (Channel Four)
