Press
The best in homegrown humour, bar almost none, came to a wistful end. The third series of Daisy May Cooper and Charlie Cooper's This Country has delighted, angered, enthralled and baffled to an inordinate extent, and I'm heart-sorry to see it go. There's a Kurtan and a Kerry living on in every misbegotten, under-endowed Cotswold and Chiltern village, every village in Britain, with their tiny horizons and their big, confused hearts. To have identified that well-intentioned, dumb, thrawn, glorious strata of society is the legacy of the Cooper twins. Also, a beautiful final in-joke.

Farewell to This Country, a modern-day masterpiece
Like so many great British series, This Country is quitting while it's ahead - but Sean O'Grady hopes this is not truly the end of the road for the Mucklowes.

This Country finale, BBC3, review
The sitcom was a warm, mocking look at a British village where the views are nice, but there's eff all to do.
