Tales of the Country tells the story of Brian Viner and his family as they move from a terraced house in north London to a rambling grange in rural Herefordshire. Based on the  successful book of the same name, inspired by his weekly dispatches from the country in The Independent, this is a chronicle of hilarious incidents and compelling characters. Adapted for us by the brilliant Nick Warburton, Tales of the Country is a beguiling look at the pleasures and pitfalls that await a family from the city chasing a rural idyll.
