Ann Droid Tackles Grief with Laughter | Leeds News

A six-part sitcom called Ann Droid has dropped on BBC One and iPlayer, and it’s already sparking massive buzz. Created by Diane Morgan and Sarah Kendall, it stars Morgan as Linda, an android assistant helping a grieving woman named Sue after her husband’s death. Set in 2029, the show blends heartfelt themes of loss with sharp, funny moments that viewers say are surprisingly therapeutic. With Sue’s son Michael (Paul Ready) navigating his own marital woes, the series balances humor and heart. Diane Morgan’s performance and writing are being hailed as “gold,” and fans — including international viewers — are demanding a second season. Even a cameo from Rylan Clark as a robot version of himself adds charm. All episodes are streaming now, and while a sequel isn’t confirmed, early reactions suggest this could be BBC’s next big hit.
