Did anyone else see this on Channel 4 at 11.45pm last night?

Absolutely astounding.

Its Chris Morris' new(?) sketch show and it makes the Brass Eye Peadophile Special look like 6pm viewing.

I am convinced that if this show was on any earlier than it was it would have had Channel 4 taken off the air.

Bravo!

Matt.

This was on a couple of years ago.Don't know if this is a new series as I missed it.

Great viewing. There's a real odd ball doctor sketch in one of the episodes.

Seem to remember pi**ing myself at it.

Brilliant! they're reshowing it..

Jam was made about 3 years ago & screened at the time on C4 - then it was curiously never seen again..

It's based on Blue Jam - a thing Morris did on Radio 1..

www.cookdandbombd.co.uk/

The realmedia files of all the programmes used to be on this site.. looks like they've taken them all down now as a CD is in the offing.. I have copies though..

Highly highly recommended... Chris Morris is a god!

Jam has just come out on DVD... www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00008IATN/ref=sr_aps_dvd_1_1/202-7473573-9960658

I think the extras on the DVD speak for themselves..

DVD Extras include;


Miniaturised viewing option for programme 1


Moving miniaturised viewing option for programme 2 (pong version)


Programme 6 speeded up and then slowed again to original duration


Lava Lamp viewing option


Programme 4 FFWD version


1st 19 seconds of programme 5


Original Test shoot material


London/Tokyo jam exhibition competition


Selected scenes retaining original audience sound


Adam & Joe's Goitre


Undeleted Scenes

Indeed CarZ - The Day Today was one of the funniest things I'd seen on BBC2.

yeah glad to see that again, luckily I was in the recommended monged state

For those who didn't see it it's stuff like this:

Doctor: come in
Female patient: I'm getting a pain in my knee
Doctor: Hmmm......does this hurt at all?
Patient: .......that's your knee
Doctor: I know.......it's much nicer than yours
Doctor (rubbing knee): Can you go now please
Patient: This is wrong you know
Doctor: Yes....I know

All timestretched to last about 5 minutes. Love it. And the guy who threw himself off a 1 storey building 40 times, instead of jumping off a large building, lordy! As Morris decribes it's like 'a slap round the face that lasts a week'

This is the craziest show I've ever seen! Nothing like seeing Kilroy running around a shopping mall in the nud, pissing on himself on TV. Bonkers
