Andy Zaltzman: The Zaltgeist
With the 3rd millennium almost 2.5% complete, The Zaltgeist sees one of the UK's leading satirical comedians assess the state of Planet Earth and its most famous and controversial species - the human race. Andy will attempt to concoct vaguely plausible answers to perennial questions such as What?, Who?, Where?, and above all Why? He will also try to harness the unharnessable power of technology to find solutions for the world's various problems and ailments, as requested by the audiences at each show.
