Henning Knows Best

Episode 2: Politics

Duration: 28 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 2Latest broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 Extra

Comedian Henning Wehn (German Comedy Ambassador to the United Kingdom) has spent over ten years living in the UK and feels he's in a good position to share his views on Britain and its unique foibles.

With a tongue sharper than a rapier sword, and searing Teutonic honesty, he shares his thoughts on what it is to be British. He takes a look at various aspects of British life over the next six weeks - class, languages, sport, humour, shopping - and he continues with British politics, sharing his views on the history of the parties, voting and Europe.

Each week he's joined by his musical companion, Otto Kuhnle - the Fatherland's foremost Yodelmeister - and a different guest. This week, it's the former football mascot, and now Mayor of Hartlepool, Stuart Drummond. Show less
