‘Motherland’ Spin-off ‘Amandaland’ Set At BBC
deadline.comThe BBC‘s Motherland universe is living on with a spin-off following a post-divorce Amanda. One of Sharon Horgan‘s hit show’s most popular characters, Amandaland will follow the protagonist after her divorce, who has had to downsize and up sticks to South Harlesden, or as the Estate Agent calls it, SoHa.
