From the makers of Moone Boy, Irish comedy-drama Can’t Cope, Won’t Cope is coming to BBC Three.

The six 25-minute episodes follows two young women, Aisling and Danielle, as they navigate life in Dublin and the perilous waters of adulthood.

The “coming-of-age millennial comedy-drama” is created and written by playwright Stefanie Preissner in her first TV commission.

Preissner commented: “The opportunity to bring the voice and experience of young Irish women to a larger audience is fantastic. The team on Can’t Cope did an amazing job capturing that voice and I hope that the BBC Three audience love it. The opportunity to see a whole new group’s reaction to Aisling and Danielle is as exciting as it is terrifying and I’ll be rocking with nerves when it goes out, just like I was the first time.”

Jonathan Ford, EVP Sales & Distribution, Content Media added: “We’re very pleased to see Can’t Cope Won’t Cope heading to BBC Three in the UK. The team at Deadpan Pictures has delivered a fantastically original and warm-hearted comedy drama, offering a great mix of new talent – both on-and off-screen – and fresh, relatable humour which we think will resonate very well with BBC Three’s viewers.”

The official synopsis reads: “Aisling (Seána Kerslake, A Date for Mad Mary) would rather be shot from a cannon than change her routine. She’s lived with best friend Danielle (Nika McGuigan, Philomena) ever since college. Together they live their lives to the full, with nights out and drink-fuelled adventures aplenty, protecting each other from the sharper edges of the world. But something is stirring. Danielle would never admit it, but she is becoming less and less enamoured with the life they’ve created…

“The pair have one thing in common – a fear of reality. They don’t know it yet, but reality has them firmly on its radar.”
