Catastrophe: Trailer, certificate and where to watch
Sharon Horgan and Rob Delaney star in this caustic TV pregnancy romcom
Year: 2015-2019
Certificate: 15
Rob Delaney and Sharon Horgan star as an American man and an Irish woman thrown together messily in London in a comedy of 'clumsy lust, instant pregnancy and genuine disaster' that is definitely not for the easily offended. It was also a huge hit for Ch4, though, and that's partly because the relationship of Rob and Sharon (Delaney and Horgan) is presented in such an unusually frank fashion by its two stars, whose control over the show was much greater than most actors - not only did they create Catastrophe, they also wrote all 24 episodes.
Look out for Carrie Fisher as Rob's mother in the first three series - this was the last TV role she filmed before her death, in 2016 - and be prepared for some dark but honest turns in the story as the fourth series arrives. (Four series)
