The British sitcom Lovesick, created by Tom Edge, follows the narrative of Dylan after he discovers he has contracted an STI. Specifically, Dylan learns that he has chlamydia. This diagnosis necessitates a difficult task: he must get back in touch with every girl he has ever had sex with to inform them of the bad news. Accompanied by his friends Luke and Evie, Dylan embarks on this process of notification. As he reaches out to his past sexual partners to let them know about his condition, the journey leads him to relive various romantic missteps from his past. The series, which was originally broadcast on Channel 4 in October 2014, features a cast including Johnny Flynn, Antonia Thomas, Daniel Ings, Hannah Britland, and Joshua McGuire. Through the process of notifying his former partners, the show explores the consequences of his previous sexual encounters. The series was formerly known as Scrotal Recall before its release. This season focuses on Dylan's attempts to manage the fallout of his diagnosis while navigating his history of romantic relationships with the support of his friends.
