The British Tribe Next Door

October, 2019
4 x 60

Scarlett Moffatt and her family move to remote Namibian village… taking with them their house and everything they own.

In a ground-breaking new series, The British Tribe Next Door, Scarlett Moffatt and her family will spend four weeks with the Himba tribe in a remote Namibian tribal village.

"For the first time in human history, British suburbia and Himba tribal life will co-exist side-by-side. This series contrasts two worlds on a spectacular scale – but at its heart, is about the extraordinary relationships it creates. Scarlett and the Himba are the perfect foils, both hospitable, curious, friendly … and sharing wicked senses of humour."

- Alf Lawrie, Head of Factual Entertainment at Channel 4
