I Hate Suzie Too (2022)
I Hate Suzie Too, the three-part anti-Christmas special to I Hate Suzie, written by Lucy Prebble (Secret Diary of a Call Girl, The Effect, Succession) and Billie Piper (Doctor Who, Yerma, Rare Beasts), follows former child star Suzie Pickles, also played by Piper, as she attempts to rebuild her public image after losing her marriage, her agent and primary custody of her son in the wake of the photo-hacking scandal. Desperate for redemption, Suzie signs on to the chaotic reality dance competition Dance Crazee Xmas, where every performance becomes another battle for public approval. A brilliant blend of pitch-black comedy and psychological panic, the special is a visceral, biting satire of celebrity culture, modern femininity, and the impossible demands placed on women in the public eye and in society at large.
Director: Dawn Shadforth
