Fleabag season 2: Release date, plot, cast, trailer and everything else about the BBC Three show

Writer and director Phoebe Waller-Bridge's 'Fleabag' returns after a critically-acclaimed season 1 with new stars in the cast

In December 2017, in an interview with Vogue, protagonist and creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge explained the origins behind her hit BBC Three show 'Fleabag'.

It came from a ten-minute routine written for a stand-up night, which was later expanded by Waller-Bridge into a one-hour one-woman show at the 2013 Edinburgh Festival. Her friend and colleague who directed the play, Vicky Jones, played Waller-Bridge's guinea pig: each and every line was tried out on her. "If she laughed, it was in. And if she said she was too shocked... it was in!" she told Vogue.

Release date

All the six episodes of 'Fleabag' season 1, which originally premiered on BBC Three, are now available to stream on Amazon Prime Video. 

Plot

Phoebe Waller-Bridge plays the eponymous anti-heroine, a woman in her 30s living in London, trying to go about life while simultaneously dealing with the tragedy of her best friend's death.
