After reading some of the things in the Paedophile thread Id thought id start this one up.

Brass Eyes was one of my favourite shows.

Brass Eye was a UK television series of satirical spoof documentaries. A single series of six episodes aired on Channel 4 in 1997, with a further special episode in 2001.

The series was created by Chris Morris, and written by, amongst others, Morris, David Quantick, Peter Baynham, Arthur Mathews and Graham Linehan


Noel Edmonds: What is Cake? Well, it has an active ingredient which is a dangerous psychoactive compound known as dimesmeric andersonphosphate. It stimulates the part of the brain called Shatner's Bassoon. And that's the bit of the brain that deals with time perception. So, a second feels like a month. Well, it almost sounds like fun...unless you're the Prague schoolboy who walked out into the street straight in front of a tram. He thought he'd got a month to cross the street.
 
Can't forget to mention 'The Day Today' either, it's along the same lines as 'The Onion' but it was a full program.
 
Haha I was thinking about that exact noel edmonds quote at lunch!

Fantastic series!

Ted Maul: Kids burst shops by filling them with rice, and pouring in water: then standing back and laughing, while the bricks are ripped apart by the swelling food.


The cake spoof and the crime spoof with 'the canoe' had me in tears. THE BRASS MOUSTACHE!


Despite his criminal mind, this man has behaved well. His reward is the canoe. This time he can sit in the canoe for up to an hour
 
Absolutely superb show :)

Love the line in the pedo episode where they send that paedophile out into space but a small child climbed aboard the spaceship with him :D
 
It was a tremendous series. Just watched the Milit-Pede pillory clip on YouTube, "I don't fancy him". :D
 
The episode with cake was great, I think cake even got mentioned in parliament! :D

I believe it did, and why not eh! Cake is a made up drug and is very dangerous.

Homosexuals can't swim, they attract enemy radar, they attract sharks, they nudge people when they're trying to shoot, they always insist on sitting at "The Captain's Table"... they *muck about*. Imagine... the fear... when you go to sleep with a gay man on board and think "Oh God, when I wake up, will everyone be dead?" You can't run a ship like that.

The best bit was when he was interviewing claire rayner about what she would do if a man tried to rape her. Look it up on youtube. Classic.
 
I just watched them all the other week. It's still brilliant although I doubt they'd get away with some of it these days.

Some of the things the celebrities said.. :D
Paedo special was great
 
Chris Morris = Genius.

Did anyone ever watch Jam? That was fantastically insane. The Doctor especially, and also the couple who were trying to buy a house off Mark Heap, but he had certain, umm, 'requirements'. I was laughing at stuff that was just.. just.. wrong.
 
I can remember an episode that had some Vegetarian on and he was walking about in a big freezer room with meat or something?

and also one where he was on a bus and there was loads of flies??
