Sex giggles! Nail clippings on the sofa! The new TV romance so realistic it's close to perfect
"Over 10 episodes, each set on New Year's Eve, it follows the evolving romance of Oscar and Ana, from hooking up, to falling in love, then gradually, in familiar ways coming apart. Despite the decade-long scope, it's not an especially grand love story; it is more truthful, exploring a formative connection and its ebbs and flows over time. Think Normal People or One Day, set in Madrid."
"When we meet Oscar (Francesco Carril), on the last day of 2015, he is preoccupied by medical school and morose after a breakup. Free-spirited Ana (Iria del Rio) hasn't yet found her path but has big plans of moving abroad. Both are turning 30, and initially bond at a mutual friend's house party over the fact their birthdays fall either side of the New Year."
The New Years follows a decade-long romance across ten episodes, each set on New Year's Eve, tracing Oscar and Ana from hooking up to falling in love and then gradually drifting apart. Oscar is preoccupied with medical school and recovering from a breakup, while Ana is free-spirited and plans to move abroad. They connect at a house party because their birthdays fall either side of the New Year, and their relationship develops with pauses and setbacks, including a year-long gap before reconnecting. The series favors truthful, small-scale moments over grand gestures, portraying the ebbs and flows of a formative connection in Madrid.
