Normal People

BBC limited series Normal People follows the forbidden relationship between Marianne and Connell, two young people with different backgrounds from the same small town in Ireland, as they weave in and out of each other’s romantic lives.

With 91% on Rotten Tomatoes, Normal People has scooped its fair share of awards and nominations, including for both its leads and an Emmy nomination for its script, co-written by novelist Sally Rooney.

The Globe and Mail called the series “beautifully made… an achingly powerful story of intimacy, affection, power-dynamics, class division and money.”
