Our Man In… The Costas

BRITISH residents on the Costas are set to star in a fly-on-the-wall TV documentary series on the work of the British Consulates, due to be broadcast tomorrow.

Expats at an outreach event in Torrevieja, shoppers meeting consular staff in Iceland supermarket and Brits caught up in a forest fire are among the British public who feature in ‘Our Man In… The Costas’, due to be broadcast on the UK’s Channel 4 at 11pm Spanish time tomorrow (March 8).

As well as helping Brits caught up in a forest fire, the three part series programme shows consular staff working with Spanish police to manage an invasion of tartan-clad football fans for a Spain v Scotland game in Alicante, and dealing with a fatal road traffic accident in Benidorm .
