The Day Today was a Chris Morris spoof news show, quality stuff - aouple of the best bits on Youtube:
Peter O' Hanra-Hanrahan interview IRA Dog Bombs At the time of this Gerry Adams was forced to have a voice actor overdub him on TV, so they make him inhale helium here.
Last thing I' m going to post here is the Brass Eye Paedo special. A fake documentary, it got more complaints the first night it was shown than any other programme in Brittish history. So Channel 4 showed it again the same time next night.
Not for the faint hearted or anyone who is a parent. But very very funny.
