Davidson says the series is influenced by their upbringing: "Growing up in an all-woman household, it was just us two and Mum, I think that's the way we see life, like scheming in the bathroom."
Much of the action in the show takes place in the lavatory, with the women plotting to make money or manipulate their partners.
While their characters are cutting in the way they speak to each other, off-screen the sisters are far more earnest, with Sadler explaining how Davidson's off-hand comments have helped her work through plot points that she's been stuck on for months.
Sadler adds that she feels lucky to have her sister in the show. "She's the funniest person in the world," she says.
Taken aback and slightly teary, Davidson explains how she'll read early drafts of the script from Sadler under her covers, laughing and jealous of her sister's talent.
"I hate her. I hate her. I wish it was me. It's so brilliant how nuanced the writing is," she says smiling.
