It’s been a few weeks since we last spoke about Fleabag, and honestly it’s been way too long.

The last season of Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s standout comedy series may have graced our screens all the way back in May last year, but we’re still as obsessed as ever. Whether we’re obsessing over those M&S G&T tins or laughing at Fleabag’s classic fourth-wall breaks, the show has always been in a world of its own – and it’s probably why we’re still so hungry for any Fleabag-related chat we can get our hands on.

One of the hottest topics of conversation when it comes to Waller-Bridge’s series is, of course, the one-and-only Hot Priest. Andrew Scott’s iconic character – who serves as Fleabag’s love interest throughout the second season – quickly became the star of the show’s second season for his awkward hilarity and that “kneel” comment.

And while the show’s exploration of religion isn’t strictly orthodox, it turns out Waller-Bridge did consult a real-life priest when it came to creating Scott’s character.
