    The rumour from about 6 months ago is that Morris's next TV project is a comedy based around Charlie Brooker's TVGoHome oxygen-thief creation "Nathan Barley". Opinion is divided over whether this is really a good idea for Morris. Seems that many Chris Morris fans detest certain aspects of Brooker's past output, and others just see the move of using the Nathan Barley character as too obvious/lame a choice to make.

    Even if the rumoured new series isn't quite as good as pervious shows, it'll probably be better than 99% of crap we get these days anyways (i.e. "America's Dumbest Taxidermists 3", "'Classic' All New You've Been Framed (with extra portions of Lisa Riley for widescreen viewers)", and a marathon of "MTV Cribs"). :)

    so whats the connection between Morris and tvgohome? I thought at first he was the creator of it, but i found out that he wasnt. Is he mates with Charlie Brooker??

    and i dont think a good show could be made of Nathan Barley, is it going to be a sitcom about how much of a prat he is or something?

    The short-lived tvgohome show on e4 was pretty poor, the site rules, and the unovations catalogue is pretty good too....

    We shall see though.

    On the Brasseye Special (Paedophilia), Brooker's Zeppotron concern were involved to an extent.
