Diane Morgan will play a humanoid robot in her next BBC sitcom

Do you think she always knew she was a robot or was it something she learned along the way?

She said she was inspired by 90s pop-funk smash Pump Up the Jam by Technotronic.

Idk, I need to hear about it at least 5 more times, then it will seem true.

Maybe her parents lied to her & denied the adoption/purchase/diy-build.

I'm thrilled that the BBC has finally commissioned a programme about AI and how it will affect your mum.
