How to watch Ann Droid from anywhere - stream the new Diane Morgan comedy online
Don't miss out on the hilarious new series from the Philomena Cunk actress
Diane Morgan can do no wrong. From bringing us hilarious but toe-curling moments as Philomena Cunk to being her deadpan best as the perpetual mouth chewing Mandy, she's an absolute comedy genius.
Let's not forget she was one of the best contestants ever to appear on Last One Laughing. Now, the comic legend has a new series out, and Ann Droid is going to be just as unmissable as everything else Diane has done.
Airing on BBC One and iPlayer from July 17, Diane stars as an artificially intelligent humanoid robot named Linda in the 6-part series. Set somewhere in the near future, Linda is assigned to care for elderly widow Sue (Sue Johnston.)
Second hand and slightly dysfunctional, Linda 'cares' for Sue with hilarious results. This is definitely one not to be missed - and you don't have to, as we share how to tune in from anywhere in the world.
