Synopsis

KYTV was a sketch-based show which lampooned the new satellite television companies which had begun to operate in the UK. Each week, a different aspect of 'cheap' television production and broadcasting provided the 'theme' for the sketches in the programme. Inept links and amateurish presentation were very much the order of the day.

Dal_Cyrus Anyone struggling to find dvd's of this (They sell for between 30 and 80 quid on amazon) just go to YouTube, everything is there in a play list, tried my luck and was shocked to find them all there, quality is not amazing but it is 30 years old!
lawrenceconwayvulcan KYTV is a show that has been forgotten in the years since it has been shown. Part of the reason is that much more savage though no less funny shows like The Day Today and Brass Eye stole it's thunder. Yet in a way it paved the way for those shows. Each episode centres on a type of programme , for example the coverage of a Boxing title fight has in it's action reply of the poor contender being shown knocked out in a large number of angles some of which would require the camera to be inside the ring itself. The cast of Helen Aktinson-Wood, Angus Deyton, Micheal Fenton-Stevens,Philip Pope and Gefforey (who also produced the show) Perkins performing as both regular characters and one-offs provide many memorable moments including one in which Anneka Rice comes face to face with someone ripping off one of her programmes. It is about time that KYTV should be lauded as the ground breaking show it was, perhaps with a repeat run.
Duncan Holding This was so funny I would class it in the same bracket as I'm Alan Partridge (series one) and Twenty Twelve in the modern comedy series. The characters work so well together with the only downside being character of Martin Brown-ironically played by the best actor (Fenton-stevens) in the series so much so the character did not return for the final series... Each episode tended to focus on a different topic which meant the jokes remained fresh.. Watching again 25 years after the show first aired it could be argued the show had dated slightly but comedy of this type does tend to although IMHO it remains superbly funny. It was probably best to end after three series which at least meant the show bowed out whilst the quality was at its best. WELL RECOMMENDED
Bingo66 I haven't seen it for years, but I'd like to get it on DVD. I remember thinking at the time that it was a lot like the early 80s comedy "Not the Nine O'Clock News" right down to the three-guys/one-girl format. Some of the content was a bit "post-watershed" There was one scene with a topless woman and it cut back to Geoffrey Perkins who said "hmmm... I'd like to have seen a bit more of that." Philip Pope, who was previously with Angus Deayton in spoof group the Hee Bee Gee Bees, went on to success in shows like "Only Fools and Horses", Deayton in "One Foot in the Grave" and Perkins is now a successful producer. Martin Fenton-Stevens has appeared in several commercials Helen Atkinson-Wood seems to have disappeared without trace.Time for re-runs on a cable channel, I think.
