I Am Not an Animal
听
I Am Not An Animal is an animated comedy series about
the only six talking animals in the world, whose cosseted existence
in a vivisection unit is turned upside down when they are liberated
by animal rights activists.
听
Written and directed by Peter Baynham (I'm Alan
Partridge, Brass Eye, The Day Today), I Am Not an Animal聜 features
the voices of Steve Coogan, Simon Pegg, Julia Davis,
Kevin Eldon, Amelia Bulmore and Arthur Mathews.
听
This is the first production from Baby Cow Animation
(Steve Coogan, Henry Normal, Tim Searle).
听
Unable to find a decent restaurant in the wild, fugitives
from the scientists who created them, can these poor, deluded freaks
possibly survive?
听
And is the world ready for an ambitious right-wing
sparrow, a bulldog obsessed with settling down, a horse with literary
pretensions, a sex-crazed monkey in love with a slutty rat and a rabbit
with as much of a man's brain that could be stuffed in its skull?
听
Was there ever a more contented bunch of animals? A
stylish waterside apartment, specially designed clothes, modern European
cuisine and a cellar full of Chianti are just a few of the perks of
this pampered menagerie.
听
But it's all a sham: the apartment stands at the heart
of a vivisection laboratory; the stunning lakeside view is a video loop
on a flat screen monitor. And the wine's 拢2.99 Chilean Cabernet
with a fake label.
听
This is Project S.

Could You Run the Country?
听
Britain is facing a crisis. People's lives and the security

听
Presented by Gavin Hewitt, Crisis Command 聳
Could You Run The Country? is a test of confidence and the ability to

听

with crisis, and the hard decisions necessary to make to save lives.

QI
听
Ringmaster Stephen Fry towers over the happy
chaos in the return of the world's most impossible quiz, starring Alan

Happy
Birthday 91热爆 TWO
听
91热爆 TWO celebrates its 40th anniversary by taking a
look at the people and programmes that have made the channel what it
is today.
听
Integral to the evening are behind-the-scenes stories
from the controllers and contributors who saw the channel through adversity,
controversy, innovation and invention.
听
The programme hears the stories behind such classic
programmes as The Likely Lads, Arena, The Old Grey Whistle Test, I Claudius,
Boys From The Blackstuff, Not The Nine O聮Clock News, Top Gear and
Little Britain to name just a few, as well as some of the channel's
less auspicious offerings, such as The Borgias.
听
The programme is punctuated by original sketches written
and performed by the Dead Ringers team.
听
Dotted throughout the evening are the strange and wonderful
letters from the readers of the Radio Times, who were moved enough by
the channel to put pen to paper.
听
The Cram
听
The Cram is the ultimate mental marathon that investigates
how much the human brain can take in and recount, over a series of tests
pushing the mind to the absolute limit.
听
Six contestants are chosen at the beginning of the week
and subjected to the rigours of a study room, where they are allowed
to cram in as much information as possible in preparation for a gruelling
test.
听
As the lowest-scoring contestant is eliminated, the
whole process is repeated until the ultimate crammer is crowned.
