About This Country
Creators Daisy May and Charlie Cooper introduce a documentary-style comedy about the lives and experiences of young people in modern, rural Britain by following the antics and events of cousins Kerry and Lee `Kurtan' Mucklowe. Each episode shines a light on the peculiar and the sometimes melancholy that comes with living far from the big city, while also poking fun at the idiosyncrasies of neighbours, friends and family. Despite higher levels of unemployment, lack of opportunity and entertainment, fun and mischief is still to be had with the village's scarecrow festival, the attempts of friends to start a business, and in the potential for romance with new arrivals to the village, amongst others. … MORE
