Joe Alwyn & Alison Oliver Reveal Loved Ones’ Feelings About Sex Scenes

Of course, as the stars explained, the series is so much more than its sex scenes. 

“The characters, I think they’re so complex and fascinating, and kind of intriguing, and coming to play it, I just really wanted to bring all that that with me,” Oliver said on bringing Frances to life.

Alwyn chimed in and praised Rooney’s book as being “really useful” in telling this emotional tale. “All the characters in the book and in Sally’s writing, generally, feel so human,” he added, “and real and have so much humanity. I think the scripts did a really excellent job of keeping the spirit of that.”
