First trailer for new Julia Davis Sky comedy Sally4Ever
Quote
A Julia Davis sitcom is a sitcom you're going to want to see. Nobody writes comedy quite as daring, misanthropic or twistedly funny as Davis.Her characters are absurd creatures that, through her gift for observation and keen ear for dialogue, become horridly recognisable from real life.

From Nighty Night to Hunderby to Camping, Julia Davis is a master of the art. Her latest creation Sally4Ever is coming soon to Sky Atlantic and Now TV. It stars Davis, Catherine Shepherd, Julian Barratt, Mark Gatiss, Sean Bean (Sean Bean!), Joanna Scanlan, Felicity Montague, and more.

The seven-part show follows Sally (Catherine Shepherd), a conscientious office worker who’s tip toed through life avoiding risk and adventure. But that all changes when she meets Emma (Julia Davis), a seductive, charismatic, bohemian actress, singer, musician, poet and author. Sally ditches her monotonous relationship with her boyfriend David (Alex Macqueen) and embarks on a wild affair with Emma. But barely before Sally’s had a chance to catch her breath and put her clothes back on, her new lover has taken over every aspect of her life. Is this really what Sally wants, or has she made a mistake?

Who Is Julia Davis? 'Sally4Ever's Creator Is Behind Some Of The Best British Comedies

Quote
UK comedy is well renowned as some of the best comedy in the world. And one of its brightest lights is Julia Davis. She's set to star alongside a whole rake of other stars in new Sky Atlantic comedy Sally4Ever. The show is set to be an absolute winner but what about Davis, it's writer, creator and lead actress? She probably looks pretty familiar, so who is Julia Davis and where have you seen her before?

Davis is a serious heavyweight in UK comedy television. No mean feat in an industry so dominated by men. Yes, Davis wrote and starred in both the iconic Nighty Night and 2016's Camping, which is now getting a stateside reboot thanks to the one and only Lena Dunham and Davis' extensive talent. Guys, that is only a tiny portion of what she as written and also, she has starred in innumerable legendary shows like Nathan Barley, Gavin & Stacey, and I'm Alan Partridge. There is nothing this woman can't do.

Davis' latest offering is a joint venture between HBO and Sky. Sally4ever tells the story of (you guessed it) Sally, played by Catherine Shepard. She has a good but kind of boring job, a good but kind of boring partner, and well — a good but kind of boring life. She finds herself in some a pretty wild mid-life crisis after her partner David, played by Alex Macqueen proposes to her.

Enter stage left Emma, played by Davis. Emma is a super sexy, cool, creative, bohemian type and they kick off a passionate affair. Before Sally can blink, Emma has moved in and all of a sudden her life is changing at breakneck speed. It's what in the queer world call U-Hauling. Sally4Ever is the tale of a passionate and true romance that goes low key cray and takes a look at modern love. Love in a time where people are far more open to fluidity and someone suddenly pairing up with a same sex partner doesn't seem that bonkers, and is actually pretty common. Thank goodness for that I say! You can always rely on Davis to serve up some seriously forward-thinking comedy.

Hilarious No Offence actor Joanna Scanlan and Felicity Montagu (guys she is Lynn off Alan Partridge) also star and like, real talk, everything they touch turns to gold.
Apart from the female leads, this little slice of dark comedy heaven is set to star an actual slew of insanely funny and talented actors. One stand out actor is Julian Barratt, who you probably know best from The Mighty Boosh and who is Davis' real life partner. OMG now that's one house I want to go for dinner in.

Other male actors include the very legendary Mark Gatiss of League Of Gentlemen and Sherlock and someone you may not have expected in a comedy show—king-of-the-flipping-north himself Sean Bean.

So do yourself a favour and get acquainted with the wonderful comedic world of Julia Davis. And never let anyone say that women aren't funny.

Sally4Ever starts Thursday Oct. 25 at 10 p.m. on Sky Atlantic and Now TV

Julia Davis reveals the anger that went into creating her fabulously ghastly comedy monster in Sally4Ever
Quote
“I’m feeling slightly ashamed,” said Julia Davis at a screening of her new comedy Sally4Ever. The room erupted in guffaws, just as they had been while watching the first two episodes of her new comedy. In it she plays Emma – a predatory and narcissistic lesbian who comes between Sally (Catherine Shepherd) and her hapless fiancé (played by Alex Macqueen) and ruins everyone’s lives.
“This goes to a lot of places and is probably more ambitious than anything I have done before,” she notes, chuckling about the fact that episode four has a scene (which she won’t say more about) so shocking Sky’s director of content had to see it to check it could be broadcast.

I hope he is, because to be honest I'm not finding the show to be very interesting. It doesn't really offend me. It just doesn't seem funny to me.

The latest Sky Atlantic and HBO partnership brings a brilliantly awkward British comedy to your screens in the form of Sally4Ever, directed by and starring the enigmatic, BAFTA award-winning Julia Davis.  She plays Emma, a highly promiscuous lesbian who turns her attention to Sally, a rather drab woman stuck in a loveless heterosexual relationship. While utterly grotesque in its depiction of long-term relationships going stale and the gracelessness of discovering your sexuality, this show brilliantly represents the very essence of Britishness. It’s dry, it’s painful, it’s embarrassing and only because it is all too real. While other directors may choose to sugar coat this story, Julia Davis doesn’t shy away from showing it all, both literally and figuratively.

 Later episodes will see Mark Gatiss, Sean Bean and Joanna Scanlon making appearances

Quote
Sally is in trouble with her boss Deborah, who thinks that her relationship with Emma is having a detrimental effect on her work.

But Deborah tells Sally that she is gay too and that she finds her very attractive. Meanwhile David, Sally's ex, meets her for a coffee to tell her that he has met someone new and that his partner is pregnant.

Sally and Emma visit their therapist and, despite Sally explaining that her relationship with Emma is dysfunctional and that she wants to split up, Emma and the therapist eventually persuade her to agree to have a baby. Straight away, they decide to search for a sperm donor for Sally.

Later Nigel, Sally's work colleague, pops around on the very night they are interviewing donors and he and Sally end up sleeping together. When Emma realises what's happened she becomes extremely jealous.

The next day at work, Sally gets a phone call explaining that Emma is in hospital after a suicide attempt. Sally rushes to her bedside and is joined by their therapist. Out of the blue Emma asks Sally to marry her, and Sally, feeling under considerable moral pressure after their therapist pointed out that Sally has Emma's life in her hands, says yes.
