I May Destroy You, BBC One Michaela Coel has made something so timely. It’s not purely comedy and it’s not purely drama. I think it’s genre-breaking, and a real debate about consent. It’s a mystery in which the viewer knows as much as the central character, who is a writer. One night, she goes out drinking, but there’s this sense that we’ve missed ...
