  • 2019-03-27T21:00:00Z30m

Cult favourite Matt Berry offers his unique take on Brexit in this one-off comedy special to mark the passing of the Article 50 deadline. Reuniting with collaborator Arthur Mathews for the first time since Toast of London, Berry plays rogue historian Michael Squeamish, who is on a mission to discover the origins of Brexit, and offer some interesting opinions on Britain's current plight along the way. Through creative use of archive footage and filmed interviews, Road to Brexit unashamedly plays fast and loose with the facts to create a joyously surreal whistle-stop tour of Britain's relationship with Europe, from the 1950s right up to Brexit.

Back at his childhood home, Anthony has demons to confront and ghosts, as well as stalkers, to lay. But when Patricia - the head of drama at the area’s most prestigious stage school - presents Ant with an offer to write and direct a play, Anthony has a chance to leave his baggage in the past, once and for all. But first he has to overcome writer’s block, his many alter-egos, a succession of ardent admirers and the rampant jealousy of a bitter new rival.
