Aired: 1/1/2008

Everything is as it usually is in Copenhagen. Søs is lying on the sofa, Pernille is serving something delicious to eat because the TV show Matador is on. Everything is as it has always been, and that's why Harald isn't on the sofa. He's dreaming himself away—to the cliffs in the Faroe Islands. Kjartan goes for a walk to the store, where he gets into an argument with the shopkeeper. Olgar has a globalized chat with Jakobina, who has just returned from France. She now feels she can compare herself to the truly great ones: Paul McCartney, David Beckham, Elvis Presley—and not least, the Prime Minister! But you can't quite get Maria to get excited. And, of course, there are also many other good and funny stories on the program.

Everything is as it usually is in Copenhagen. It's a beautiful morning, and the family is going to have breakfast. But things don't always go as planned when you try to do it in Danish. Sofus goes to the bank and hears that people are exchanging Faroese banknotes for Danish ones. This awakens his sense of nationalism. We go into the shed to bait the lines, and it's so obvious that Kjartan has met someone with an inner 'dude' who wants to get out and dance. Do you know what it's like to be too "chic"? And, of course, there are also many other good and funny stories on the program.

Everything is as it usually is in Copenhagen. Aunt Yvonne has a birthday, and a song must be sung. But they don't quite agree on how it should be done. Adidas is mentioned in the context of globalization, because a world record has just been broken. As so often happens when such a thing occurs, there's a Faroese person somewhere involved in the action. Randi asks the big question: Why do Faroese people go to Norway to work? Is it the winds of globalization that are causing it? Sofus? He's gone to the AB football field. And, of course, there are also many other good and funny stories on the program.
