We Might Regret This is a BBC Two comedy drama created by and starring Kyla Harris about a thirty-something Canadian tetraplegic who moves to London.
Freya (Harris) is a Canadian tetraplegic in her thirties when she moves to London to live with Abe (Boyd). Freya requires constant personal assistance to provide her care but after not successfully finding an appropriate Personal Assistant (PA) for this intimate role in London invites her chaotic and impulsive best friend Jo (Saurel) to take the job.[2]
We Might Regret This was initially reported in November 2022 to be in development as a Channel 4 pilot.[3] The series was greenlit by the BBC in June 2023 to be a joint British and American production between Village Roadshow and Roughcut. The director is Nick Collett. It is produced by Inez Gordon and executive produced by Ash Atalla, Alex Smith and Rebecca Murrell.[4] The story is inspired by the lived experience of co-writers Harris and Getty. Executive producer Atalla, a wheelchair user himself, has spoken of his wish to produce a high-end quality show on the subject matter.[5] Filming got underway in October 2023.[6]
The series was broadcast in the UK on BBC Two on 19 August 2024.[7]
