I would also add that Fred tries to embrace his truth, but is constantly scolded for it in return (until the ending ofc).

That’s a good addition! I couldn’t really place Fred, Melody and Colin in my analysis, but I'm very happy for other people to add that stuff!

it's such a great show and I think I started conceptualising the essay as soon as I finished watching it. I fear Fleabag is very much essential viewing, so yes, get on itttt!
