6. Fleabag
Thought by many to be one of the all-time greatest British comedies, Fleabag started as life as a one-woman stage play, written and performed by Phoebe Waller-Bridge. It premiered in Edinburgh in 2017, becoming a word of mouth hit at the festival. Snapped up by the BBC, the two series won numerous awards, including a Bafta, six Emmy Awards and two Golden Globes.
