EXPENSIVE AND BUDGET of Motherland Season 3
Broadcast explained that this comedy series was more expensive than other comedy series as the Motherland was all shot on the location. They needed lots of mums and also masses of children to give the real taste to the school-gate drop-offs, birthday parties, and swimming pool gatherings.
Taking experience in creating series from her personal life being a new mother, writer Helen Linehan said she had no idea she would have to give so much attention to detail.
She added that if we pay attention, we would find a logo for the made-up school designed by the art department.
A guest appearance by actress Joanna Lumley would appear in the third episode of the season which will be airing today (24th May).
She added that Liz and Kevin are trying to avoid mum stuff altogether with a trip to the countryside, Anne is beside herself with excitement at the prospect of a day out with her Mammy and Felicity (played by Lumley), mother of Amanda, travels from Cheltenham for a gloriously passive-aggressive celebratory lunch.
What did fans think?
One fan on Twitter wrote that the audience should at least get another series, as he binged the 5 episode season on iPlayer and said he loves the show absolutely.
Another fan took to Twitter to cherish the casting of Joanna in her role as Amanda’s mother.
A third fan added that the show makes him cackle out loud acknowledging the absolutely brilliant, comedy writing genius Sharon Horgan.
Some characters of the show were based on the writers themselves as they experienced the feeling of parenthood and other characters were mainly based and inspired by real-life people the writers had come across in their lives.
