Recommend a show called The Book Group. About an American creative 'lass' who goes to Scotland and needs to meet people so tries to set up a book group. Strong football element in the show. I reckon watch the first 10 mins and you could be hooked.

Two of the people who turn up are Swedish bimbos:

"Claire, their husbands are professional football players"
"Oh right. Soccer? You can make money from that?"

Then two of the guys who turn up are definitely not Book Group types:

Kenny: "I was blown away by it, I couldn't put it down"
Claire: "Thing is Kenny, it would be good to hear why you couldn't put it down"
Kenny: "Because it was such a bloody brilliant book"

Then Claire asks Rab what he thinks on the book:

"I agree wi' Kenny"

So it's just really awkward... And there's various alternative motives for people being there, and good drama of the characters etc...

Season 1 is fantastic. Season 2 is meh for me.
