John Shuttleworth: It's Nice Up North
Shuttleworth travels to the Shetland Islands to test his theory that the further north in Great Britain you go the nicer people are, Shetland being the most far north part of the UK. He meets various Shetland people in unrehearsed situations. Many assume him to be a real person and not a comic creation, though some scenes are acted, particularly parts with famous local tour guide Elma Johnson.

Reviews
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
