Favourite quotes: - Fleabag: [to her dad] Oh fuck it, I have a horrible feeling that I'm a greedy perverted, selfish, apathetic, cynical, depraved, morally bankrupt woman who can't even call herself a feminist. - Fleabag: You know that thing when a guy sends you a text at two o'clock on a Tuesday night asking if he can come and find you and you've accidentally made it out like you've just got in yourself so you have to get out of bed, drink half a bottle of wine, get in the shower, shave everything, dig out some Agent Provocateur business, suspender belt the whole bit and wait by the door til the buzzer goes? - Fleabag: [talking about Godmother] To be fair, she's not an evil stepmother. She's just a cunt. - Fleabag: Dad's way of coping with two motherless daughters was to buy us tickets to feminist lectures, start fucking our godmother and eventually stop calling.
Favourite moment: Feminist lecturer: So I pose the question to the women in this room today: please raise your hands if you would trade five years of your life for the so-called "perfect body". [Fleabag and Claire immediately raise their hands, then realise that nobody else in the auditorium has.] Fleabag: [to Claire] We are bad feminists.
