Family Tree - the BBC mockumentary

A new eight part comedy series entitled Family Tree is discussed on the BBC website today at www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-19293834. Featuring Irish actor Chris O'Dowd the series is being made by Christopher Guest, the man behind the This is Spinal Tap movie which poked fun at the music industry, and will apparently be in the same tongue in cheek 'mockumentary' style - though quite who or what it will be 'mockumenting', and how, is yet to be revealed! As well as appearing on the BBC, the US will also see the series on HBO, but transmission dates have yet to be announced.

Should be interesting when it surfaces...!
