This Country - review

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

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.

TV: This Country - episode two, BBC Three/BBC One

Fears that award-winning mockumentary This Country might outstay its welcome and run out of steam by returning for a third series were quickly dispelled with last week's classic opener and the standard stays just as high for this second episode following life in a Cotswold village.

It's the third and final series of Cotswolds mockumentary comedy This Country (also streamed on BBC Three), written by and starring siblings Daisy May Cooper and Charlie Cooper, as Kerry and Kurtan.

The opening episode featured lovable monster Kerry and the wonderfully eerie Kurtan coming to terms with the death of Sluggs (their real life co-star, Michael Sleggs, died last year, aged 33). A letter left by Sluggs revealed that he and Kerry were responsible for a broken holiday bed that Kurtan was blamed for. Furious at Kerry ("Her only loyalty is to herself, staffies and the TV channel Dave"), Kurtan ensured that Kerry lost her new job at a recycling plant ("At the end of the day I'm a very vindictive person. It's what makes me me"). The episode finished with the pair rebonding over how proud they were of Sluggs for "shit-stirring from beyond the grave".

What a great tribute to Mr Sleggs. The strength of This Country is keynotes that lie not in cruelty or mockery, but rather affection and silliness, and all so sharply done. I, for one, will miss this feral, witty dance around the Cotswolds.
