The Armando Iannucci Shows - Season 1

Armando worries about what other people think about him. He is convinced people in aeroplanes are looking down and laughing at his inability to kick a ball.

Armando examines people's feelings about work... a woman wakes up screaming when she realises she spends her working life designing bacon packaging.

Armando looks at morality and tries to find out how to be good. A church group shows him how to hose beggars off the streets. A Kenyan village launches a charity appeal for British theatre.

Armando's comic probe looks at communication and he worries we've all run out of things to say. The country's restaurants are full of middle-aged couples who don't speak to each other.

Armando looks at time passing and admires people who keep the past alive, while Hugh delivers a surreal monologue about what things were like in the old days.

Armando wants to know what his neighbours are really like. He reflects on how we treat strangers. A woman has all her dresses stolen, and finds Danni Behr and Eddie Izzard wearing them.

Armando looks at our imagination. He taunts animals at the zoo with reminders of how much better humans are than them, and encourages us to be more imaginative with some profane gardening.
