The Day Today The headlines tonight...
A spoof of the British news - including ridiculous stories, patronising vox pops, offensively hard-hitting research and a sports presenter clearly struggling for metaphors. Adapted from Radio 4 series 'On The Hour'.

You ask anybody on the street what they think of Britain's public buildings any they'll probably look at you and say "Well, they're a load of old rubbish". That's why The Day Today has commissioned a special fly-on-the-wall documentary series about every single one of them. Starting this week with St. Lambs pool, in Acton (Extended scene from episode 2).
