Spring: Wedding Venues
The Andersson family take Geoff on a road trip to Stockholm. Starring Adam Riches and Sissela Benn. From 2017.
The Andersson family take Geoff on a road trip to Stockholm.
The third series of Danny Robins' sitcom, set and recorded in Sweden.
Starring Edinburgh Comedy Award-winner Adam Riches, Danny Robins and a cast of Sweden's most popular TV comedy actors.
It's three years since Geoff moved to the tiny north Swedish town of Yxsjö with his girlfriend Linda.
It's been quite a culture shock and they've been through a lot in three years - rotting herring, moose and bears, battles with language, perfect ex-boyfriends and ice hockey, the birth of a son, a marriage proposal and a runaway hot air balloon.
This year promises much as Geoff's mother-in-law Gunilla teaches him Swedish and his father-in-law Sten tries to make a Swedish man of him - in an entirely non-sexist way.
Geoff and Linda start to plan their wedding with the questionable help of fellow ex-pat divorcee Ian, Linda's brother, depressive Goth Anders and fellow immigrant, Kurdish Dane Soran.
