Synopsis

A spoof of the British news — including ridiculous stories, patronising vox pops, offensively hard-hitting research and a sports presenter clearly struggling for metaphors. Adapted from Radio 4 series 'On the Hour'.

About 2h 54m to watch every episode. An estimate: 6 episodes at the typical episode runtime of 29 minutes.
