Barry Humphries and a team of senior investigative reporters provide an outsider's perspective of life in 2016, through reports, hidden camera experiments and comedy sketches. The results provide a fresh take on the mechanics of British society and culture, and a comedic look at the modern world's attitude to the country's burgeoning OAP population.

Overview

Oh dear, after 94-year-old Bobby’s trials with racist language, he’s now accosting people in the street to find out what he should call a homosexual. If that doesn’t make you feel uncomfortable, you may need to cover your ears and eyes when Helen, who says that at 91 she’s still frisky, investigates sex among the elderly. But it’s those adorable friends Margot, Trish and Daphne who steal the show. Having recovered from their cannabis experimentation, they try their hands at video games. And they do get a bit carried away. “Margot!” squeals Daphne, “This is your dead body and I’m going to kill you all over again. Yaaaay!”
