    Charlie Brooker's Newswipe: Proper Funny

    Want to see a pitch-perfect deconstruction of a typical news report? Fancy a laugh on this dark, overcast British morning? Check out Charlie Brooker's Newswipe.

    BBC iPlayer - Newswipe: Series 2: Episode 2

    The bit about news reporting starts at about 12.11 and lasts about 3 minutes but the whole programme is worth a watch.

    Proper Funny and with a serious point to make as well. The interview with Heather Brooke is great too.

    Thanks, I'd not seen it. Heather Brooke broke the MPs' expenses scandal.
