The Day Today and Brass Eye were largely the work of Chris Morris - fucking hilarious shows. The guy always pushes things as far as he can take them. Remember the uproar when he did a Brass Eye about kiddie fiddling? It was on the front page of every newspaper lol... he's made a career by writing comedy about things most people could never imagine joking about...
