Ep 4. ...on Holiday

On this episode of "Very British Problems," host Rob Beckett delves into the typical British experience of going on holiday. Starting off with the packing process, Beckett highlights the constant worry of overpacking or underpacking, and the struggle of fitting everything into one suitcase.

Next, Beckett explores the British attitude towards the actual travel part of going on holiday. From the discomfort of airplane seats to the avoidance of small talk with seatmates, the British approach to travel is one of stoicism and keeping to oneself.

Once at the destination, Beckett examines the all-too-common British habit of seeking out familiar comforts in foreign lands. Whether it's seeking out a fry-up breakfast or insisting on finding a British pub, many Brits refuse to fully immerse themselves in the local culture.

The episode also touches on the challenges of communicating with locals and the difficulty of ordering food in foreign restaurants. But ultimately, Beckett shows that despite these small struggles, Brits are still able to enjoy their holidays and even find a sense of home away from home.

Throughout the episode, Beckett is joined by various British comedians who share their own experiences and observations on British holiday habits. With plenty of laughs and relatable anecdotes, "Very British Problems" season 2 episode 4 is a must-watch for anyone looking to understand the British approach to vacations.
