This Country

Loved this series, hope they get the nod to make another 6 episodes. I was a little unsure after the first 10 minutes of episode 1, being new to the characters I instantly noticed a striking similarity between Kurten and Gareth Keenan from The Office which I found a little alarming, but as I became more familiar with the show, it gradually grew on me. One of the unsung hero's of this program is the unseen mum of Kerry Mucklowe, all you hear is the strains of the mother coming from her bedroom shouting at her daughter..and in one episode, a Playstation comes flying out of the window. It's a big shame that this series didn't get a much wider audience , I only happened to hear about it via an interview with the main actor/writer Daisy May Cooper on my local BBC news show 'Points West', it definitely deserves a 2nd showing on BBC2 at a much more reasonable time than the 11:30 BBC1 slot it was getting after Match of the Day on Saturday night. This show is a little gem.

This Country is superb, from its close nit family cast to its true to life episode content.

Kerry and Kurtan are a superb duo who tell a typical story of living in the Cotwolds, their issues are typical things which others may encounter living their ordinary lives in a rural community.

I hope there is a second season of this comedy to continue the stories.

Paul who plays the vicar/priest is superb and really helps make the stories believable.

All in all a very easy watch, some swear words but it adds weight to certain situations.

This is the only review i have ever wrote on IMDb and here is why. This show, in my opinion has not had the recognition that it deserves. It is a fresh, crisp and comical series which is great fun to watch and will have you laughing, loudly from start to finish. The 2 main characters, despite being delinquents, are surprisingly lovable and portrayed brilliantly!

You either love it or hate it depending on your sense of humour but for me personally this is the funniest thing I have ever seen

As often happens with a significant development in creative imagination, this show polarises its viewers into a great majority who absolutely love it and a minority who just don't get it. A shame for them but a joy for the rest of us. Best of all, despite achieving series three the show hasn't lost its fragile balance between the absurd and the deeply insightful. A real world has been created. Great achievement.
