‘The Trip To Greece’ Is Finally Going To Serve Us Some Good Food (Again)
It’s time to pack up to head for the sunny shores of Greece, becauseSteve CooganandRob Brydonare back for a fourthThe Tripinstallment. The incandescently great British sitcom in which Coogan and Brydon play exaggerated versions of themselves while eating delicious food is back forThe Trip to Greece, which has begun filming this week. Coogan and Brydon are both returning, hopefully with a few new Michael Caine impressions up their sleeves.
The Trip to Greece Filming Begins
In the immortal words of Gordon Ramsay,finallywe’re getting some good f***ing food. Coogan and Brydon are serving us looks and delicious Mediterranean food in the first look at the production ofThe Trip to Greece, which follows 2017’sThe Trip to Spain.
This will be the fourthThe Tripinstallment, which are filmed as a multi-part comedy series that airs in the U.K. before they are cut into films for U.S. release by IFC. The brainchild of Brydon, Coogan, and directorMichael Winterbottom,The Tripbegan as a six-episode British sitcom in 2010 starring Brydon and Coogan as fictional versions of themselves taking a restaurant tour of northern England. Part mockumentary, part food show, the offbeat series turned into a critically acclaimed film, and went international with the follow-upsThe Trip to ItalyandThe Trip to Spain. While the sequels haven’t quite garnered the following of the first 2010 film,The Tripfilms remain a necessary balm in this hellscape of a world and have produced some comedy classic scenes like Coogan and Brydon’sMichael CaineandSean Conneryimpressions. One can only imagine who they will imitate next inThe Trip to Greece
The full details forThe Trip to Greeceare still under wraps, but Brydon has confirmed through social media that he and Coogan are back on board, as is likely Winterbottom.
