A spoof entertainment news show, using lookalikes to create CCTV, hidden-camera and cameraphone footage of celebrities behaving embarrassingly. This is unmistakably the work of Alison Jackson, who won a Bafta for BBC2’s Double Take. Like her previous work, it takes simple, underwhelming comic ideas, such as Prince William buying anniversary flowers at a petrol station, and adds nothing at all to them, leaving opportunities to raise a laugh or make a point untouched.
