Have you been watching … My Mad Fat Diary?

E4's show about a teenager with mental health difficulties is smart, sympathetic and hilarious – combining riotous fun with challenging issues



The trailer for My Mad Fat Diary seemed to proclaim it as a celebration of stereotypes and sex, soundtracked by Pulp. It did this dark comedy-drama set in late-90s Lincolnshire something of a disservice – from the very first episode we spent with overweight 16-year-old Rae, readjusting to life after a secret spell on a psychiatric ward, it has been clear that E4's show was determined to move beyond cliche.

I think he's 21. Which makes me feel better since I'm an old lady at 43.

Watched it all. Amazing. When she unzipped her overweight exterior, good lord, powerful.

God damn, I was beginning to worry that there'd be no discussion on this show. Digital Spy doesn't seem to be arsed at all, they only want to talk about Corrie or whatever.
Anyway, I love it, I know all of those feels, and I LOVE Finn and Rae. When she was talking about how he was so out of her league no-one would ever guess that she liked him- ah. My soul sister.
I really wish I hadn't burned my diary years ago in a fit of madness :(
