ENTERTAINMENT (6x30’) TX this autumn on Channel 4
Britain Today, Tonight (w/t) is a send-up of a tabloid ‘news show’ which promises to shine a light on contemporary Britain. But with Kayvan playing the part of the American anchorman (Digger Dayley), the reporters and even some of the subjects of the reports – this is the ‘news’ as you have never seen it before. Featuring brand new characters specially created for the show, the series will see Kayvan Novak – star of Fonejacker and Facejacker – causing havoc on the streets of Britain. He’ll be disguising himself as a range of weird and wonderful personalities in order to perform a range of hidden camera hits, as well as winding up the public at large. Britain Today, Tonight (w/t) was commissioned by Channel 4’s Head of Entertainment, Liam Humphreys & Head of Comedy Entertainment, Ben Caudell.
