Notorious for its dark humour, the show follows narcissistic sociopath Jill Tyrell (Julia Davis) as she learns that her husband Terry has cancer. She uses this fact to manipulate new neighbour Cathy Cole, a wheelchair user with multiple sclerosis. Her husband Don Cole is a womanising doctor and the man with whom Jill becomes increasingly obsessed.
The first series won a Banff Award and Davis won a Royal Television Society Award for her performance and got a highly positive reception from TV critics. The Guardian called it "an exquisitely vile comic creation" and adding that "The Office might have popularised the comedy of embarrassment, but Nighty Night has moved it on." The Times called it "a blistering wall of superbly unredeemed cruelty that manages to trample over every social convention in a pair of cheap stilettos."
Jill Tyrell is one of the most despicable characters ever created and it's very hard to stop watching her because you never know what she's going to do next.
