British Comedy Guide, 2nd April 2020This Country review
This Country has, over its three series, been willing to cover issues of more seriousness.
Noah Keate, The Boar, 2nd April 2020The best in homegrown humour, bar almost none, came to a wistful end. The third series of Daisy May Cooper and Charlie Cooper's This Country has delighted, angered, enthralled and baffled to an inordinate extent, and I'm heart-sorry to see it go. There's a Kurtan and a Kerry living on in every misbegotten, under-endowed Cotswold and Chiltern village, every village in Britain, with their tiny horizons and their big, confused hearts. To have identified that well-intentioned, dumb, thrawn, glorious strata of society is the legacy of the Cooper twins. Also, a beautiful final in-joke.
Euan Ferguson, The Observer, 29th March 2020Top 20 British sitcoms of 21st century: This Country
This Country is not a series that benefits from extensive hype: it is perhaps best discovered for yourself, either on DVD or on the BBC iPlayer. But it is nevertheless, quite brilliant, a wonderful, low key, comic delight.
