Ann Droid - New Diane Morgan Comedy

[SpeedBash]

Bit of an odd one this...Starts Friday 17 July 2026 on BBC1

It’s Sue’s worst nightmare - an overly attentive, socially inept, second-hand robot carer. But maybe this droid has its uses... Starring Diane Morgan and Sue Johnston.

I've a feeling it'll be a swing and a miss.

Diane Morgan is great so I'll give this a go but the trailer doesn't fill me with hope.

Given we've had products like Amazon's Alexa generating near-perfect synthetic speech since the early 2010s, having her speak like a robot from the 1980s is such a weird choice.

Stranger still when this is, according to the blurb, set in 2029.
