About The Series:

Broadcast in 1994 on BBC2, The Day Today is an adaptation of the award-winning radio programme On the Hour. It famously parodied the "newsnight" style of aggressive journalism and the "dumbed down" sensationalism of tabloid television. The series won numerous accolades, including a British Comedy Award for Chris Morris, and remains a definitive landmark in British comedy history.
