This is the News Chris Morris is one of the most singular and
controversial figures in recent UK media, at one point being
described as the 'most hated man in Britain' for his corrosive
media satire. With shows such as the notorious spoof Brass Eye,
this writer, performer, DJ and director has not only pushed
boundaries of taste and acceptability, but altered perceptions of
current affairs broadcasting, moral panics and celebrity culture.
At the same time, cult programmes such as Blue Jam, Jam and Nathan
Barley have pushed conventional formats such as sketch comedy and
sitcom to the limits of possibility.
In the first full-length scholarly book on the comedy of Chris
Morris, writers discuss his early DJ career, his pioneering radio
satire, his television mockumentary, his experimental black comedy
and his more recent move into film-making. No Known Cure approaches
the work of Chris Morris from a diverse range of perspectives in
order to fully grapple with his wide-ranging, groundbreaking media
output.
