''Lovesick'' is a British sitcom produced by [[Tom Edge]], which first aired under the name ''Scrotal Recall'' on Channel 4, before It was taken over by Netflix and produced by Clerkenwell Films for two further seasons [https://variety.com/2016/digital/global/netflix-season-two-scrotal-recall-1201737285/].

== Plot ==
The show revolves around Dylan ([[Johnny Flynn]]) who is diagnosed with Chlamydia and goes on a quest to inform all of his ex-girlfriends about his condition, running into one awkward situation after another. Each episode is centered around one of Dylan's past relationships, telling their story in retrospective, alternating with the present moment. His friends and flatmates Luke ([[Daniel Ings]]) and Evie ([[Antonia Thomas]]) tag along while trying to figure out their own, complicated love-lifes. Luke is a ladies-man, who is always up for parties and fun, but a softie at heart. Evie harbors romantic feelings for Dylan, but the timing just never seems right for them...[https://www.comedy.co.uk/tv/lovesick/]

== Reception ==
This sitcom manages to take a taboo subject like a sexually transmitted disease as a reason to inspect the past and learn valuable lessons about friendship, love, and all things in between. It delivers a dramatized but accurate version of life as a twenty-something year old where everything seems uncertain, especially love. 
The British Comedy Guide wrote: <q>This structure lets us explore how emotions are keenly felt in the heat of the moment but dim quickly with hindsight; love strong enough to poleaxe you seems faintly ludicrous from the vantage point of a just a few years on.</q> [https://www.comedy.co.uk/tv/lovesick/about/]
 8.1 out of 10 score on Imbd [[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4051832/?ref_=ttep_ep_tt]] In 2015, ''Lovesick'' was nominated for two BAFTA Awards for Best Writer - Film/Television ([[Tom Edge]]) and Best Directing in Film or Television ([[Gordon Anderson]])[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4051832/awards?ref_=tt_awd].
