This Country: Return to Planet Mucklowe
Daisy and Charlie Cooper are back for a second series of their hit comedy, and it's funnier than ever.
Sean O'Grady, The Independent, 22nd February 2018TV/Online review: This Country, BBC Three
The comedy here is very much in the margins. In a look or an aside.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 21st February 2018Daisy and Charlie Cooper interview
The brother-sister duo behind the revolutionary BBC comedy on their childhood feuds, "the Mr Perkins scandal", and stalking Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen in Cirencester.
The New Statesman, 20th February 2018BBC Three has released some excellent comedy over the last few years -- Fleabag, Pls Like, People Just Do Nothing -- but This Country marks the crowning jewel of 2017's output. Basically The Office for the Cotswolds, the series focusses on Kerry and Kurtain, two imbecilic cousins who cause trouble for everyone around them. Writers/siblings Charlie and Daisy Cooper play the bumbling duo with hilarious ease, poking fun at life in the West Country while also showing compassion for the people they're mocking. Where Hot Fuzz focussed on an entire town, though, This Country boils everything down to our insular, arrogant, terrible twosome.
