TV Time Machine #17: March 2000: DA Ali G Show, Jam, Randall & Hopkrirk (Deceased)

  • Summary

  • Luke and Matt board the TV Time Machine to view the TV landscape of March 2000. Ross Kemp signs a 'golden handcuffs deal' with ITV to work for solely for that broadcaster. The result, at least initially, is a single drama entitled Hero of the Hour, which stars Kemp as a security guard who unwittingly becomes a hero when he foils a robbery.

    On the BBC, Reeves and Mortimer revive classic TV show Randall and Hopkirk (deceased) whilst on Channel 4, they're still pushing boundaries with their comedy output. Firstly, a new project from Chris Morris, JAM, which plays more as an uncomfortable art piece than it does a comedy. Meanwhile, fresh from his debut on the 11'o'clock show, Sacha Baron Cohen's comedy creation Ali G gets his own show.

    It's a mixed bag of shows.
