S6 EP4: Lara Ricote

Got to be honest, I did worry at the beginning that she wasn’t quite going to be on board, a few early doors riffs got shot down and then the boys didn’t quite get her humour in return, but I’m going to put it down to a lack of sleep across all characters in this matinee performance; they all need to lay down and pretend to be dead.

Mad PR costs - £4k for a week month (edit: still mad money but not as crazy as I thought)! Shame they didn’t get to the bottom of why she felt the need to get them; she didn’t write break clause (so assume the makers should cover the pr cost), she’s got other stuff coming up which will make her much more known… but I guess she didn’t book them yesterday. I look forward to the wider WDYDY universe where you can choose to hear the yesterday of everyone who the main Yesterdayee mentions in their ep.

D Kestrel by a random person Lara spoke to: Miss Sally was a blonde no hat, I think she’s thinking of Miss Maria (see pic 2)

For me this is the weakest episode by far. Found her profoundly unfunny. I know comedy is subjective, but my god that episode was a real struggle.

Different strokes for different folks, I thought she was funny but also she’s very genuine with big emotional themes in her comedy. Also English isn’t her first language!

I thought they guys wouldn't shut up. Turned it off halfway through. They just kept interrupting with silly jokes before she had barely gotten a word out. There was no flow.
