History (DStv 254), run by AETN Networks UK, has commissioned a new factual entertainment show entitled No County for Old Men that is scheduled to be shown on History in April 2012. There will be 8 episodes.
In No County for Old Men, the comedians and friends Simon Day and John Thomson attempt to uncover and discover the differences between different British countries as they travel from Cornwall to Cumberland, Surrey to Suffolk and from Herefordshire to Carmarthenshire.
''The counties of Britain are living historical artefacts and Simon Day and John Thomson's comedic peregrination through our county customs and characters will show how our history is alive and evolving all around us,'' says Adam MacDonald, AETN Networks UK's vice president of programming.
