New drama Londynczycy has been described as a Polish version of EastEnders.
The show, which will air on Poland's TVP1, focuses on young Polish immigrants moving to Britain.
Characters include a 30-year-old construction worker living in Ealing and a fame-hungry 25-year-old woman who wants to marry an English man.
The big budget series, produced by London-based Andrzej Szajna, has been filmed on a £3 million budget at locations across the capital.
Szajna told The Guardian: "All of the scenarios are based on true stories they were told."
He insisted that Britain would be shown in a positive light: "It is Polish people who are screwing over other Poles, which is so often the case in real life.
"There is one scene where there is a girl looking at adverts in a shop window, and a few other Poles come up and say they can help her find a good job in return for £100. You hear stories like that all the time."
