This Country - review

I thought the mockumentary format peaked with Ricky Gervais's The Office, but I'd say This Country has it beaten.

Claudia Connell, Daily Mail, 10th March 2020

Kerry and Kurtan's countryside adventures continue in the final season of this surprise, sarcasm-laden hit. Tonight, Kurtan gets some bad news about a relative and is determined to make new, happy memories, while Kerry discovers a surprising love of reading and joins the vicar's book club.
