Press
This is a comedy series, but with the EU referendum debate becoming ever more poisonous it's often hard to see the funny side here. Presented by German comedian Henning Wehn, it's a humorous documentary telling newcomers how to fit into Britain. But for how long can we chuckle about Boris when he stands ready to pull Britain out of the EU before making a grab at becoming Prime Minister?
It's hard to push aside the awful image of PM Bo-Jo shaking hands with President Trump and that rather intrudes on this light-hearted show about the quirks of British life. But tonight, Wehn encourages us to forget our looming fears and laugh about British horrors such as tinned pies and bingo and the even greater terror of standing too close to someone.
