Complete British mini TV series Doll & Em on DVD, featuring 6 episodes.
After the collapse of her best friend's relationship, Em – a successful British actress starring in a Hollywood movie, invites Doll to LA to become her personal assistant as a way for Doll to find the financial and emotional independence that she needs. The friendship will of course come first, the work second… well, that's the plan anyway. Soon after arriving, the line between life and work becomes increasingly blurred until each one is no longer sure of the other's motivation. Is Doll being supportive because she's a good friend or because she is being paid to be? The gulf between the friends widens.
An intimate, funny portrait of female friendship, set against the backdrop of LA. At times biter sweet, at times laugh-out-loud, this pastiche of friendship in the glossy world of film and television packs a delightful entertainment punch, whilst delivering important emotional truths across the series. While each episode tells its own story, there are subtle shifts and developments that occur over the six episodes.

“It's an awkward, funny and deceptively clever confection that is saved from Hollywood hipness by the unmistakable warmth of the complex relationship at its heart.” The Observer
