The Bubble
Synopsis
Each week, three celebs (mostly comedians, with the odd journo thrown in) are cut off from the outside world for four days, then asked to determine which news stories from that period are true and which are made up.
This programme has not yet aired. A full review will appear here after broadcast.
Trivia
Although it made fake stories for the unbroadcast pilot, BBC News refused to allow their staff to make fake stories for the actual series. This was actually used as one of the stories in the first episode, and none of the participants (Frank Skinner, Victoria Coren and Reginald D. Hunter) managed to pick it out as true, all believing instead that the iPhone has an application that tells you how bad your breath smells.
