Postcards from the edge

Rosie Molloy Gives Up Everything is the title of Sky Comedy's flippant new show, and it's true - the eponymous Ms Molloy, played by Sheridan Smith, really does need to give up everything. A single woman best described as a functioning alcoholic and a chronic substance abuser, she arrives, unsteadily, at a crossroads in her life. Her relationships are a mess, too. She's just drunkenly wrecked the wedding of her brother and learned that her father (Ardal O'Hanlon, ex-Father Ted, and at his charming best) is dying of heart disease. Rosie finds it difficult to accept the concept of "terminal". It's time for Rosie to grow up and sober up. Can she? Will she?
