Review

Frances Taylor

If Motherland fans had a vote on which of the beloved sitcom’s characters would get their own spin-off, Amanda may not have been everyone’s first choice. However, writer Holly Walsh has said that of all the characters, there was “something unresolved” about Amanda’s story and the decision to shine the spotlight on the hoity toity horror is spot-on.

In the wake of her divorce, Amanda (Lucy Punch) has upended her life. The kids have changed schools and she’s had to downsize to South Harlesden. Or “SoHa”, as she insists it’s called. There are still some familiar faces; Philippa Dunne returns as eager Anne and the sublime Joanna Lumley again steals every scene as mum Felicity.

But new schoolgates mean Amanda must get the measure of a new social strata and she quickly latches on to Della (Siobhan McSweeney) and Fi (Rochenda Sandall). Whether they like it or not…
