Ruby Speaking is a six-part British comedy television series for ITVX made by Yellow Door Productions, created and written by Abigail Wilson, and co-created with Jayde Adams and Lucy Lumsden.
After an initial release exclusive to ITVX in June 2023, the show was broadcast on linear television on ITV2 in January and February 2024.
[3][4] The series is produced by Lucy Lumsden and Jayde Adams for Yellow Door Productions.
Ideas for the show were loosely inspired by Adams time spent working at a centre in the Stokes Croft area of Bristol.
[9] Steve Bennett wrote, in a two-and-a-half star review for Chortle, that Adams' character Ruby is "just a little too bland to sustain the viewer’s interest – which is something of a surprise for anyone familiar with Adams's often brash, larger-than-life stand-up performances".
