Nighty Night
Overview
Nighty Night, a British dark comedy sitcom crafted by and featuring Julia Davis, debuted on BBC Three in January 2004 before transitioning to BBC2. The show centers on Jill Tyrell, a self-absorbed sociopath who runs a beauty salon with her inept, asthmatic assistant, Linda. Upon discovering her husband's cancer diagnosis, Jill exploits this news to manipulate their new neighbor, Cathy Cole, who uses a wheelchair due to multiple sclerosis. Obsessed with Cathy’s husband, Don, a philandering doctor, Jill's antics lead to darkly humorous situations. The series features a memorable theme by Ennio Morricone. A U.S. adaptation was announced in 2006, with Darren Star attached as writer and executive
