The new sitcom started filming this week 🎥
Dinosaur has been commissioned as a six-part series following a successful pilot which aired last year.Created by Matilda Curtis and Ashley – who is comedian Janey Godley’s daughter – it follows Nina, an autistic woman in her 30s, who adores her life living with her sister Evie.However, when Evie rushes into an engagement after only six weeks and makes Nina her maid of honour, Nina grapples with what this new challenge means, leading to a surprising journey of self-discovery.
In her 2019 Edinburgh Fringe show, Ashley said her own autism is"what makes me me ... I'm very good at hiding it. I've got what's called 'masking'. Ladies are very good at hiding autism, it's when we put on a muggle face and we can pretend to be normal.” The pilot for Dinosaur was Ashley’s television acting debut, following a minor role in Josie Long's 2018
