Freak Like Me - Episode 5

Logo for Freak Like Me - Episode 5

Comedian and self-confessed creature of habit Russell Kane uncovers and celebrates the astounding breadth of Britain's weird and wonderful personal habits and obsessions - and reveals just how widespread they really are. All of us at some time worry about whether we're normal or not. We fret about those odd things we do when no one's looking. But, behind closed doors, everyone has odd habits - being freaky, it turns out, is actually the norm. This episode features a postman who is obsessed with his fingernails and toenails, a mother and daughter obsessed with plucking their eyebrows, a girl who has to smell everything and a boy who dances in his bathroom late at night, among others. And the great British public debate matters of national importance - such as whether to scrunch or fold your loo roll, which numbers you prefer and how you dance alone at night.
