Call My Agent: Trailer, certificate and where to watch
Hilarious hit French comedy set in a chaotic Parisian talent agency
Year: 2015-2020
Certificate: 15
The zany French comedy Call My Agent, set in a Parisian showbusiness agency, starts with the death of the company's owner. Part of the fun is to do with the machinations and romances of the agency's eccentric staff as they vie to be boss - in particular the stand-out characters of tough but always charming agent Andrea Martell (Camille Cottin) and ruffled adulterous senior agent Mathias Barneville (Thibault de Montalembert).
Each episode also sees a French star play an outlandish version of themselves with the agents desperately having to clear up their mess. As the show became more popular - there are four series and a film in the offing - the stars became bigger and bigger, and the final episodes included Charlotte Gainsbourg and Sigourney Weaver. Ten Percent, the one-series British version of the show starring Jack Davenport, Kelly Macdonald and a host of familiar British acting talent, is available on Amazon Prime Video. (Four series)
