The eight-part series follows seven couples as they navigate relationship therapy with expert Karen Doherty. The fly-on-the wall documentary, which captures both therapy sessions and the couples’ interactions in the real world, covers issues including infidelity, dishonesty, financial difficulty and parenting. Couples therapist and relationship coach Doherty told PA that the show was exactly like her day job. “I had no contact with them [the couples] other than the six hours of therapy that I did with them,” she explains. “The whole show is based on the premise that the therapist gets to know what she finds out in that moment and responds appropriately there and then. We all stuck to that format. …

Published by Sam Flores

Adolescence actor Erin Doherty on stage at the 2026 Golden Globes Adolescence actor Erin Doherty was apparently feeling a little loose-lipped while accepting her award at this year’s Golden Globes. During Sunday night’s ceremony, the British performer was announced as the recipient of the Best Supporting Female Actor In A TV Series prize, triumphing over The White Lotus’ Aimee Lou Wood, Carrie Coon and Parker Posey, The Studio’s Catherine O’Hara and Hacks’ Hannah Einbinder. After coming on stage to collect her award, she dropped an F-bomb that managed to make it onto the air, despite the Golden Globes’ censors’ best efforts. “I made a promise to my mum I wouldn’t swear,” she began. “But what the fuck! Holy shit!” “Sorry, mum!” she then added, before going on to dedicate her win to Adolescence, having played one in the third episode of the hard-hitting Netflix drama. But Erin wasn’t the only member of the Adolescence cast to keep the censors busy during Sunday’s Golden Globes ceremony. While accepting his award, Stephen Graham apologised after beginning his …

Erin Doherty reveals big life change after Adolescence success that feels like a ‘natural’ next step

Erin Doherty has revealed that she’s embarked on a big life change following her continued career success in the hit show Adolescence. The actress has moved in with her girlfriend Sinead Donnelly, which she described as a “natural” next step.  According to the Daily Mail, Erin, 33, has shared that she will be moving from West Sussex to London in order to spend more time with Sinead, 35, an NHS radiographer. She opened up about the move just as she was named best supporting actress at the Critics’ Choice Awards on Sunday for her role as forensic psychologist Briony Ariston in the Netflix series. “As much as I loved getting on the trains and going to see her and spend days in London, I also wanted to wake up next to her. I’m such a romantic,” she is reported as saying. “People say it’s a cliche lesbian thing to move in straight away. But I just thought, ‘I really think I should move in’. I just love her.” That Erin, who is best known for …

A Thousand Blows season two review – Erin Doherty is so good it’s hard to think about anything else | Historical drama (TV)

Published by Sam Flores

The problem with having Erin Doherty star in your TV drama is that it makes it extremely difficult to tell whether it’s any good or not. The 33-year-old is more than an impressive actor – she is a magnetic presence, able to sell the idea that she actually is her character in a way few others can (a particularly impressive feat considering her breakthrough was playing Princess Anne in The Crown). As such, Doherty’s participation in a series can elevate the premise, plot and script in a slightly confusing way. Watching the first few episodes of Steven Knight’s late-Victorian thriller A Thousand Blows, I wasn’t sure whether I was genuinely enjoying the programme or simply marvelling at Doherty’s effervescent turn as wily, tough-as-boots pickpocketing queen Mary Carr. Series two makes it easier to spot the difference. While the first outing suffered from its share of heavy-handed exposition, the tale of an East End boxer (played by Doherty’s Adolescence co-star Stephen Graham) whose local dominance is undone by a smart Jamaican fighter (Malachi Kirby) was propulsive …
