“The Revolution Will Be Televised” is a satirical comedy series which is now in its 2nd series. If you have never seen it then I definitely recommend you give it a watch.
It is one of those programs where it is so uncomfortable to watch, because the people you see in it are put in such an awkward spot by the two actors who play the various characters; Jolyon Rubinstein and Heydon Prowse.
This is what what makes it brilliant and so funny to watch. The feeling I get watching it is much like I felt when Dom Joly first hit the scene. I’m almost relieved when the program is over!
Here is a brilliant clip from the BBC Three youtube channel which shows you exactly what the program is all about.

To funny I should deliver a load of bullshit to my locate sheriff department. These guys are outrageously brave and funny.
These types of shows are my favorite. I love pranking shows and the “what would you do?” style shows so this one definitely seems like it will be right up my alley.
