This month, Bajan TV series Keeping Up With The Joneses will begin its broadcast on UK television. This will be the first time ever a TV series from Barbados will be shown on British screens. The Bajan hit takes on a mockumentary style a la The Office and Modern Family.
Sailbourne Entertainment (a European film production company) selects the Jones family to be the subject of their documentary: Life and Times in the Caribbean. It requires that a camera crew follow the family around for six days after which the family will receive $10,000 US. Irving (the patriarch of the family) signs the contract to do the show against Angela’s (his wife) wishes. Now, Irving, Angela, Tracy (their 17-year-old daughter) and Nathan (their 10-year-old son) have to coexist while the camera crew films their every move.
Keeping Up With The Joneses will be broadcast on Sky-209 and Virgin-828 from Monday 13 May at 2:30pm with a new episode each weekday (2:30pm and 11pm) until 31 May. See a clip below.
