The Cold Swedish Winter

Geoff worries about trolls, mortality and poisoned blueberries.

The fourth series of The Cold Swedish Winter, following the fortunes of a British comic who has married into a Swedish family and is building a new life in Scandinavia.

We catch up with Geoff and Linda as the generous period of Swedish paternity leave comes to an end. It's time to discuss sending their son John to dagis (pre-school) and launching Geoff onto the unsuspecting Swedish job market.

This means Geoff must come to terms with conflicting attitudes towards health and safety, the sinister undertones of Pippi Longstocking, and what happens when the entire staff of a Swedish office kicks off.

In his new, tiny, Northern home-town of Yxsjö, Geoff confronts the Scandinavian practice of 'death-cleaning', the Mosquito Museum, white water canoeing and Swedish attitudes towards gender equality. His father-in-law Sten becomes the voice of Geoff's conscience and Gunilla, his mother-in-law, helps him make a commercial.
