Delightful. Also a pleasure? When he starts walking toward us in the beginning, and he's concentrating so hard that he's got his right arm going with his right foot.
Also- the man has weekly T.V. and op-ed columns in the Guardian. If you liked this you'll like that, though I guess most people reading this will be in the US and not necessarily know the shows mentioned.

Brooker did work on BrassEye, including the infamous paedophile episode. Morris and Brooker also worked together on Nathan Barley.

Newswipe functions as a critique of the news not just an exercise in satire (a la Brass Eye and The Day Today).. so.. wrong
