Auf Wiedersehen, Pet
Created by Franc Roddam
A warmly comic ensemble drama about working-class British men abroad, balancing workplace camaraderie with homesickness and the economic desperation that drove them to leave.
Seven British construction workers escape Britain's ever growing dole queues and travel to Germany to work on a site in Dusseldorf. We follow their trials and tribulations of working away from home and away from the women they left behind.
