SAT        Series 2, Episode 3
SAT        Rory Bremner and the team return for another series of
SAT        Tonight, the topical satire show that digs that bit deeper
SAT        into national and international politics.
SAT        Rory's mantra is that it's as important to make sense out of
SAT        things as it is to make fun of them. With a team that
SAT        includes veteran satirists Andy Zaltzman and Nick Doody and
SAT        versatile impressionist and character comedian Kate
SAT        O'Sullivan, Tonight promises to do both. This is half an
SAT        hour of stand-up, sketches, and investigative satire. And at
SAT        the core of the show are Rory's incisively funny interviews
SAT        with the most informed guest commentators on the current
SAT        political scene.
SAT        More global crises, more political scandal, more jokes with
SAT        the word fiscal in them - and some truly brilliant
SAT        impressions: a shot in the arm for satire lovers everywhere.

FRI        Series 2, Episode 4 
FRI        Rory Bremner and the team return for another series of 
FRI        Tonight, the topical satire show that digs that bit deeper 
FRI        into national and international politics. 
FRI        Rory's mantra is that it's as important to make sense out of 
FRI        things as it is to make fun of them. With a team that 
FRI        includes veteran satirists Andy Zaltzman and Nick Doody and 
FRI        versatile impressionist and character comedian Kate 
FRI        O'Sullivan, Tonight promises to do both. This is half an 
FRI        hour of stand-up, sketches, and investigative satire. And at 
FRI        the core of the show are Rory's incisively funny interviews 
FRI        with the most informed guest commentators on the current 
FRI        political scene. 
FRI        More global crises, more political scandal, more jokes with 
FRI        the word fiscal in them - and some truly brilliant 
FRI        impressions: a shot in the arm for satire lovers everywhere.
