Two Baftas meant BBC3's mockumentary could no longer be described as underrated. Could it cash those high expectations with a better second series? Yes. Charlie and Daisy May Cooper's snapshots of two wastrel cousins in a knackered Cotswolds village welcomed newcomers with a fresh torrent of stupid antics and twisted one-liners, particularly from Daisy May Cooper as both Kerry Mucklow and her mother Sue, who's becoming one of the great never-seen comedy characters. It was more sturdily put together this year, too, with some textbook sitcom plotting and stronger pathos, as we saw what matters to these young people who are so hilariously careless on the surface.

Reviews: There She Goes; This Country

A TV show can be written with the best of intentions, made with love, commitment and an all-star cast, and yet sometimes this isn't enough.

This Country - the Aftermath review

This Country is funny. Not so much with the LOLs, but as a comedy of the silent squirm, it is unbeatable.

Alastair McKay, Evening Standard, 12th October 2018

Review: This Country - The Aftermath

Writers/stars/real-life siblings Daisy May Cooper and Charlie Cooper are terrific as Kerry and Kurtan.

Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 10th October 2018
