All British Comedy Explained… to Abigoliah Schamaun, by Tom Salinsky
1.7: The Day Today. Released 8 January 2026.
A big tradition in British comedy used to be the shows getting an early experimental (and inexpensive) radio outing before being let loose on a bigger (more expensive) television stage. After twelve episodes of bizarre news spoof On The Hour had been transmitted on BBC Radio 4, a television version seemed inevitable. There were only six episodes of The Day Today but from them flowed award winning plays, more sketch comedy, defining modern political satire, question in the House of Commons about made up drugs, and of course Alan Partridge.
Next time we’ll be listening to the incredibly long-running “antidote to panel games” I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue. Various episodes are floating around the Internet, sometimes even on BBC Sounds. We’re going to be listening to series six episode six, series 42 episode two and – if Abigoliah can stand it – series 83, episode two.
Here’s a long list of social media systems where you can find the podcast and us.
