Ah, classic programing, along with 'The Day Today' - I think it was.
My grandfather (when he was alive) used to watch many news and current affairs programs eg. newsnight, panorama etc. and when he saw TDT he mistook it for a serious news program, thinking some of it was a 'bit strange..' but none the less worthy of his attention. The penny had droped by the time the next program was scheduled - he was furious at the 'bloody stupid dross on the television today' though I suspect he was more annoyed at being duped into mistaking it for a genuine news program, being a 'man of the world' as he saw himself, hehe
