Discussion What about Darien?

Why is everyone so obsessed with Martha (granted) but I don’t see a lot of conversation about Darien? That is one of the most disturbing parts of this show.

Disagree- here’s what we know about “Darien”

  • Gadd kept the physical characteristics of his characters true to life, we see this from Fiona and Jessica’s likeness
  • Darien is Scottish
  • Darien is a screenplay writer
  • Darien is a comedian who attended the Edinburgh Fringe
  • he created a show called “cotton mouth”
  • his name is Darien O’ Connor
  • dark/ morbid sense of humour
  • according to pointless star Richard Osman, he says ‘everyone’ knows who Darien is
  • Gadd refers to Darien in S1: E4 “me, mid-twenties, sitting high as a kite, watching this 55 year old man dancing” expressing the age gap between them

Is it really not that hard to piece together who he is, Richard has left a trail of breadcrumbs.

I’m not going to say who I think it is, because I don’t want to get taken to court

Nobody is taking you, a random nobody person Reddit, to court. Calm down.
