It’s the most cerebral, emotional and subtle comedy on TV. Think that, however, and Demetriou has sucker punched you all. Perhaps it doesn’t pull in the viewing figures because people write it off as jolly slapstick or awkward cringe comedy or zany pratfalls or crude clowning. You get the scripts and I’m just laughing, I honestly just sit there… I know it sounds cliched, but you just read them and you go this is just… because it’s so unique, his language.If a tree falls in a forest, and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? Or, to put it another way – if a sitcom wins three Baftas, and no one watches it, is it a comedy classic? In the case of Stath Lets Flats (Channel 4), Jamie Demetriou’s oddball sitcom about an inept Greek-Cypriot lettings agent in north London, undoubtedly so.
The cast are all full of praise for creator Jamie too, with Ellie giving a brilliant summary on what it’s like to work with his rather outlandish writing: ‘It’s like nothing else you get script-wise. The most exciting thing about the whole show is you can tell how much this cast all love each other’s energy for it, and for each other, as Al concluded: ‘I guess I kind of feel, as long as it’s big – basically I never want it to stop, it’s so fun to do.’ Yalla LETS go ⦠⦠/ZRVdqi6bTN- Ash Atalla June 7, 2021Įllie noted every character in the show ‘could have a spin-off’ but was uncertain on what was to come for the future of Stath, leading Al to chime in: ‘Wasn’t there talk of a Katia play at some point… a one woman play?’ All the flats all the jokes all the time. Itâs STATH LETS FLATS s3 coming later this year. The surprisingly cute relationship between Al and Sophie, who’s played by Jamie’s equally hilarious sister Natasia, is finally going to develop further this season too, as Al reminded us: ‘I think all Sophie and Al have actually done is hugged, which is very mild! It’s exciting that there’s potentially a long way to go, if they were to make something of themselves. ‘It doesn’t go to plan and, Stath is really, really irritating her and she’s trying to sort push him away and he’s just being really over-emotional, crying every time he thinks about the fact he’s going to have a child,’ Katy laughed.
‘Carole’s heavily pregnant – still working – totally in denial that she’s literally about to give birth, she’s on the phone to a tenant! Basically, she just refuses to let it go and the whole kind of way Carole gives birth is totally absurd.
The wonderful Julia Davis will guest star this series (Picture: Getty)Īfter leaving fans on one of the most bizarre endings to a comedy series ever, we pick back up just as we’re about to see Carole give birth to Stath’s (Jamie Demetriou) baby, which promises to be utterly chaotic in true Stath-style.
