Netflix has released a new trailer for the Katherine Ryan comedy `The Duchess.`
Created by and starring Ryan, the series follows the `powerful and problematic choices of a fashionably disruptive single mom living in London,` according to Netflix's description of the series. `Her daughter, Olive, is her greatest love so she debates a second child with her greatest enemy - Olive's dad. But can two wrongs make another right?`
Ryan is an executive producer on the series alongside Dave Becky and Josh Lieberman of 3Arts, as well as Murray Ferguson, Petra Fried and Ed Macdonald for Clerkenwell Films.

A U.K.-based comedian and TV personality, Ryan is known for appearing on panel shows like `8 Out of 10 Cats` and `Mock the Week.` She has previously released two Netflix stand-up specials, `Katherine Ryan: In Trouble` in 2017 and `Katherine Ryan: Glitter Room` last year.
In an interview earlier this year, Ryan discussed making her first foray as a writer into scripted television with `The Duchess.`
`I've never written a sitcom so that makes it very different [from my previous Netflix specials], and it was a challenge because I'm not a screenwriter who's experienced, I don't know the rules, I'm learning the rules. I'm also learning that Netflix allows you to break a lot of those rules, and they just want authentic voices from all over the world,` she said.
