data-id=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/tag\/normal-people\/page\/2\/\">Normal People<\/a> has just arrived on Netflix, and people are warning new viewers to ‘grab your tissues’.<\/p>\n<p>The widely acclaimed adaptation of Sally Rooney’s bestselling novel of the same name made waves when it <a

data-id=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2025\/04\/26\/normal-people-5-years-paul-mescal-daisy-edgar-jones-meteoric-rise-fame-22968330\/\">first came out in 2020<\/a> on BBC Three – leaving a trail of broken hearts in its wake. <\/p>\n<p>The Ireland-based story follows Connell and Marianne from their late teens through to their early 20s as they navigate love, loss and all the ways your first love can haunt you. <\/p>\n<p>Portrayed by<a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/tag\/paul-mescal\/page\/11\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/tag\/paul-mescal\/page\/11\/\"> Paul Mescal<\/a> and <a data-track=\"inline-tag-auto-link_article\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/tag\/daisy-edgar-jones\/\">Daisy Edgar-Jones<\/a>, the roles not only catapulted them into global fame but the show landed seven Bafta nominations, including a win for Paul as lead actor. <\/p>\n<p>The show has touched several lives for its portrait of the complex relationship our star-crossed lovers share – from their school days when Marianne felt socially rejected by Paul through their early adulthood as they both grow into themselves, and must navigate their own traumas.<\/p>\n<p>Set across 12 episodes, it has topped the list of people’s favourite TV shows and amassed a loyal fanbase.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"img-container shareable-item wp-caption\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n\t\t<img width=\"646\"
