Starstruck Season 1 Download In English 720p
StoryLine:
BBC Three’s new comedy Starstruck is another bauble to add to the small, but precious and increasing hoard of productions effortlessly infused with the particular sensibility that comes with being led by women. You don’t notice how much the rest of your cultural input is informed by the male perspective – it’s been so common, so unchallenged until ridiculously recent times– until something different comes along.Starstruck Season 1 Download.
Written by the award-winning comedian Rose Matafeo (who also stars) and the comedy performer and writer Alice Snedden, and directed by Karen Maine (also award-winning), Starstruck is the six-episode tale of twentysomething Jessie (Matafeo). She lives, millennially, in east London – one flatmate, a ninth of a suburban terrace house rented between them, two dead-end jobs and a variously enjoyable series of one-night stands at the weekends. One of them turns out to be with a film star, Tom (Nikesh Patel). At first, she is gobsmacked to discover his real identity and then, as you would be, hysterical. “It’s not going to happen again,” she says to her flatmate Kate (Emma Sidi). “But he can’t take it back!”Once you are over this slightly improbable premise and a slightly flat first episode while everybody finds their rhythm in this fairytale-inflected Hackney romcom, there is a lot to enjoy.
There’s Matafeo’s performance for starters. Her timing is as immaculate as you would expect from an experienced standup, and her various foot-in-mouth moments arise from a convincingly galumphing, garrulous nature instead of the grating dizziness-in-proximity-to-a-man that we usually get from the genre. Kate is more easily stirred (“Oh, my God,” she cries, when Tom turns up at their flat one afternoon in the second episode, “You’re going to the OSCARS!”) but even she is more one of life’s natural flappers (“Where’s the tea? Will he want whisky? Ice-cream! WHAT’S THE VIBE?”) than traditional Ditsy Sidekick. It’s very pleasing.
