Netflix has released the first trailer for British-based comedian Katherine Ryan debut scripted comedy series ‘The Duchess.’ The trailer (watch above) shows Katherine as a single mom living with her daughter and convincing her boyfriend for a second child. The series is set to premiere on Netflix, September 11.
The Duchess follows the powerful and problematic choices of a fashionably disruptive single mom living in London. Her daughter, Olive, is her greatest love so she debates a second child with her greatest enemy — Olive’s dad. Can two wrongs make another right?
Netflix's official synopsis says "Katherine Ryan, fresh off her Netflix special “In Trouble,” came to us with an idea based on her life as a fabulous single mom living in London. Season 1 follows Katherine as she debates if she should have a second child with her estranged and troubled baby daddy. It is meant to be a Catastrophe-like single-cam comedy set in London."
The first season will have 6 episodes with 30-minutes each.
Alongside starring as lead, Ryan has also written the script and has served as executive producer. Other Executive producers are Dave Becky & Josh Lieberman for 3Arts; and Murray Ferguson, Petra Fried, and Ed Macdonald for Clerkenwell Films.
