Taking The Flak Series 1, Episode 7 - Viva Africa - British Comedy Guide (original) (raw)
The war is over and celebrations fill the streets of Karibu, in the last episode of the satire about international news reporting.
Further details
A new democratic era dawns for the country as the exiled Lion Queen of Karibu returns to a heroine's welcome, a rally and an election. But what does the end of conflict mean for Harry, Grace, Samantha and the Sons Without Guns? What does the future hold for them, and for the country?
There's good news and bad as hopeless Harry finally hits his stride but loses his phone, his friends and maybe his future; while David's lack of action in the sack starts to affect his work ... and his colleagues.
