There’s nothing good on TV any more, at least, that’s what the public seem to think. Join two downtrodden TV executives as they try to find something, anything, that the public will watch. Expect wacky characters, dramatic actors, desperate writers, power mad streaming services and variable viewing figures! Find the answers to questions like: Have either Zach or Oli worked in TV before? Do they know what they are doing? Is this technically slander? Do either Oli or Zach have the legal qualifications or funds to defend themselves? All this may or may not be answered in: British Broadcasting Crisis!

Having cut their teeth with the student sketch group the Oxford Revue, Zach Burns and Oli Adcock have decided to take on television. Not in a meaningful way, you understand, they will still have to pay their licence fee after this…
Nevertheless, they have bought sufficient woollen clothing to prepare them for the north as they follow in the footsteps of previous Revue alumni like Michael Palin, Al Murray and Rowan Atkinson. We also assume that they have seen a series at some point. We can’t be sure though…we haven’t asked them.

Praise for Burns’s previous show Scrapped! "ridiculous, witty and hilarious" The Cherwell"A genuinely funny evening" Oxford Opening Night'
