John Bishop's Britain

Series 2, Episode 5 - Friends

John Bishop takes on the important topic of friends. He starts by looking at those first friends we make at school, before asking: "What do the nicknames we give our friends actually mean?". Internet friends also come under his comedy microscope, as does the biggest question of all: "Can men and women actually be friends?".
