We are back in the Cotswolds with cousins Kerry and Kurtan for the third season of this deadpan mockumentary. With news of the death of a beloved local resident to contend with and Kerry forced to take a job - thanks to an alpaca-related debt - Kurtan steps in to provide some much-needed domestic help. A revelation from beyond the grave soon throws things into a spin for the mismatched pair, who are real-life sister and brother. Pitch-perfect and expertly paced. Also streaming on BBC Three.

Forget Fleabag, This Country sums up Britain

The story of two cousins living in the Cotswolds is hilarious and humane--with a subtle political streak.
