Victor Giacobbo - Switzerland
Rory Bremner meets Victor Giacobbo, who uses a variety of comic character creations to illustrate the subtle but active social differences in well-behaved Swiss society.
Rory Bremner engages topical comics, satirists and comedians from different countries about their cultures and how they relate to ours - if at all.
Victor Giacobbo has been a satirical presence in Switzerland for the best part of 30 years and uses a variety of comic character creations to illustrate the subtle but active social differences in this well-behaved country. The fact that Switzerland is the oldest culturally integrated, openly democratic country in Europe cannot conceal the absurdities and contradictions found in the political classes and the people of this cheerful, mildly repressed, law-abiding nation.
