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.

The story of two cousins living in the Cotswolds is hilarious and humane--with a subtle political streak.
Sameer Rahim, Prospect Magazine, 14th February 2020Who said it: This Country or a famous philosopher?
We give you a quote of scintillating insight. One that was either said by a real-life titan of philosophy (Plato, Jean-Paul Satre, Sun Tzu, or one of those types), or Kerry and Kurtan Mucklowe. You just have to pick the right one. It is harder than it looks.

BBC, 12th February 2020Review - The Personal History of David Copperfield
It is a rollicking ride. A bit too rollicking, if I'm honest, careening through the 350,000 word novel at breakneck speed.
