Borderline (2016 TV series)

Borderline is a British mockumentary television comedy series devised by Michael Orton-Toliver and Chris Gau.

Narrated by Ralf Little, the series launched on 2 August 2016 on Channel 5.

The series follows the activity of customs agents working for Borderline, a fictionalised version of the Border Force, at the fictional Northend Airport.
