What does everything (or anyone) think of the (originally) BBC Three comedy 'This Country', written by and starring brother and sister Charlie and Daisy May Cooper, and also starring their dad (Paul) and uncle (Trevor) plus their late friend (Michael Sleggs?

Fun fact #1: I set up and administrate a 21k-strong Facebook group called the Dump Gang

Fun fact #2: I was an extra in the special episode 'The Aftermath' (between series 1 and 2), which was repeated late in the night on Christmas Eve, leaching into Christmas morning - as such I technically appeared on BBC TV on Christmas Day..

Fun fact #3: I played in 2 charity football matches with cast and crew of the show, including one where we played half a game in London then travelled to Belgium to play the second half. I shared accommodation and social fun with Charlie and Paul during this occasion.

Fun fact #4: On the centenary of the First World War, I was one of many who broke the Guinness World Record for the largest human poppy formed, in Cirencester (home town of Charlie, Daisy et al).
