  • The Second Pilot for 'The Day Today'.
    The Day Today is a British comedy television show that parodies television news and current affairs programmes, broadcast in 1994 on BBC2. It was created by Armando Iannucci and Chris Morris and is an adaptation of the radio programme On the Hour, which was broadcast on BBC Radio 4 between 1991 and 1992 and was written by Morris, Iannucci, Steven Wells, Andrew Glover, Stewart Lee, Richard Herring, David Quantick, and the cast. For The Day Today, Peter Baynham joined the writing team, and Lee and Herring were replaced by Graham Linehan and Arthur Mathews. The principal cast of On the Hour was retained for The Day Today.
    The Day Today is composed of six half-hour episodes and a selection of shorter, five-minute slots recorded as promotion trailers for the longer segments. The six half-hour episodes were originally broadcast from 19 January to 23 February 1994 on BBC2. The Day Today has won many awards, including Morris winning the 1994 British Comedy Award for Best Newcomer.
    Presented by Chris Morris.
    Produced by Armando Iannucci.

    You have to watch all the Debate 2000 bits to get the full impact (on the other pilot that is on YT). It is one the best thing they did. The comic acting, writing and piss-take of 'After Dark' at the end of this clip is genius: after the fight she says 'Right, well I think that's adequately illustrated what the French revolution was all about so let's move onto it shall we?' and the French 'writer' quips, again, 'What, its style or its content?'
