The success of After Life, the award-winning Netflix comedy drama starring Ricky Gervais as a grieving widower, showed that it’s still possible to find humour in even the saddest areas.

The deliciously dark comedy follows two very different sisters – Ellie and Gwen Goode – who inherit their late grandfather’s funeral home, called Loving Tributes. After losing her teaching job, strait-laced Ellie wants to make a go of running the business, but laid-back Gwen wants to sell the funeral home so she can afford to go to Bali and become a DJ.
