Big Mood is a new comedy on Channel 4 that will be airing soon, which stars Nicola Coughlan and Lydia West.
It follows two best friends Maggie (Coughlan) and Eddie (West) who have done almost everything together for the past decade or so.
The series as a whole is described as a "vivacious and rebellious portrayal of female friendship when infiltrated by the complexities of a serious mental illness".
As reported in the Radio Times, the synopsis reads: "Best friends Maggie and Eddie (played by Nicola Coughlan and Lydia West) have lived in each other’s pockets for 10 years, through thick, thin, and multiple challenging eyebrow trends.
"But with the rest of their lives looming, careers hanging in the balance and Maggie’s bipolar disorder making an unwelcome return to form, Eddie begins to question whether this friendship is really in their best interests."

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
