Joe Lycett TROLLS the BBC

Season 1

That did not go how the BBC expected. When comedian Joe Lycett appeared on Laura Kuenssberg's new politics show, he refused to play the game and instead used satire to roast our soon-to-be prime minister Liz Truss. By doing so, he punctured the self-important Westminster Bubble that presents itself as sophisticated political commentary but is often the inane and the superficial. That's why - unlike most of the discussions on these shows - it went viral.
