Paris, dream or nightmare? Jane is an out-of-sorts English girl who dreams of becoming a real Parisian. When she finds herself like a fish out of water in the city of romance, she consults Victoire de St Germain, a rather unusual coach. Victoire is also an expat, but who has become more Parisian than the Parisians.She will reveal to Jane the secrets of a true Parisian lifestyle.French frogs, treacherous Albion, our friends the Gauls, taking French leave - from Waterloo to the entente cordiale, cross-Channel relations for centuries have been something of a 'love-to-hate' affair. This comedy mini-series will explain why: an English girl in Paris consults a coach to learn how to become 'French', and British humour takes on the French character. The aim: give the French a taste of English irony so that they can take themselves less seriously.
