If you can stomach the cheap embarrassment of prank show TV, there's no reason why you won't like this one from comedian Lee Kern. This first episode of six has science as its theme, with Kern posing as a boffin and trying to convince David Van Day and Big Brother's Brian Belo that they're about to meet human clones of themselves.

Celebrity-botherer Lee Kern follows up The Royal Wedding Crashers with a new series that has one aim: to wind up famous (and not-so-famous) people. If you're amused by the sight of Big Brother types taping vegetables to their faces, then this stunt show will be like sweet poetry for your eyes. It's a suitably tasteful post-pub treat, with Kern undergoing colonic irrigation and pretending to be a dog. Not at the same time, obvs. The first episode sees him convince celebs they've been cloned, giving a puzzled David Van Day the chance to meet David Van Duplicate.
