The Day Today

Details

Summaries

A spoof of the British style of news broadcasting - including ridiculous stories, patronising vox pops, offensively hard-hitting research and a sports presenter clearly struggling for metaphors.

A satire of British news programmes. It parodies the 'hard-hitting' Gulf War-era style of journalism, as well as mocking sports journalism, weather reports, American news programmes, business reports, soap operas, 'vox pops', and many other targets.—Martin Pollard

A news parody show that tackles topical events and, largely, fictional events (so, very much like serious news programs). Hosted by Chris Morris we have sport with Alan Partridge, business news with Collately Sisters, weather with Sylvester Stewart, traffic with Valerie Sinatra as well as on-the-spot reporters Barbara Wintergreen and Peter O'Hanraha-hanrahan.—grantss
