Following the success of last year’s mockumentary, The Road to Brexit, cult favourite Matt Berry (What We Do in the Shadows) returns to BBC Two with four more episodes, entitled Squeamish About... that will take on new themes.
Co-written by Berry and Arthur Mathews, (Father Ted, Toast of London) each new weekly episode of Squeamish About…will shine a weird light onto a different topic. Presented by Berry in the persona of ‘Michael Squeamish’, every episode will make creative use of archive footage and voiceover to create a unique, authored and surreally comic take on the subject matter.
Berry is also due to return to BBC Two later this year in the second series of vampire comedy What We Do in the Shadows alongside Natasia Demetriou and Kayvan Novak
Squeamish About….is an Objective Fiction Production for BBC Two. It will be produced by Hannah Mackay, with Ben Farrell as Executive Producer. It is commissioned by Patrick Holland, Controller, BBC Two and Shane Allen, Controller Comedy Commissioning. The Commissioning Editor for the BBC is Kate Daughton.
