Ant Hines And Peter Baynham

David Poland's video lunches over at iKlipz have suddenly become a whole lot more interesting.

This week he's sitting down with Ant Hines and Peter Baynham, two of the writerly brains behind Borat, and on the verge of Oscar torment as a result.

If you've been following British comedy closely over the last decade or so this pair probably won you over some years back - particularly Baynham who played a memorable part in any number of classics: Fist of Fun, The Chris Morris Music Show, The Friday/Saturday/Election Night Armistice, Brass Eye. Most of those are probably lost forever now, but Brass Eye is available on DVD and if you haven't seen it but enjoyed Borat's taboo-skewering satire, you really need to check it out. It's 'the next level' and, I honestly believe, one of the very few most important TV shows of all time.
