The award winning tale of the last days of the Marquis de Sade, imprisoned in an asylum in Paris 1807.
From the makers of Fonejacker comes a new show for Channel 4...Facejacker. Kayvan Novak once again plays the man of mystery but this time he is up close and personal with his subjects rather than on the other end of a telephone line. He plays a succession of fictional characters thrust into real life situations butting up against unsuspecting members of the public. The show features a mix of some of the characters that we saw in Fonejacker (outspoken car salesman Terry Tibbs and Mr Doovde) and some that we only heard but who have now been brought to life: Brian Badonde - the charlatan art critic who knows very little but who is more than happy to pass off your wisdom as his own whilst presenting his TV show. Dufrais - the Jewish wheelchair-bound fantasist who is obsessed with the minutiae of life and who is desperate to attract a cast for the feature film that he is written; Schindler's Other List Dr. Ali - Saddam Hussein's plastic surgeon of choice. But that was in the 80s. Now he plies his trade in the UK. Donald Donaldson - A British-born former Hollywood director who finds himself back in England auditioning dogs and directing wedding videos but still wanting to give them the Hollywood treatment. A character-based sketch show set in the real world performed by one man in a prosthetic mask and numerous members of the public.
Series 1: The Fonejacker is a man on a mission - he's addicted to making prank calls and no phone is safe. Fonejacker Doovde Series 1 features all the characters from the BAFTA award-winning TV show including Terry Tibbs a car salesman who makes dodgy dealing an artform; Mr Doovde who talks in abbreviations; George Agdgdgwngo the scamster who wants your bank account details and sort code; the Mouse who can talk; and Mr Miggins the old man who can't get to grips with the modern world. Once you've seen Fonejacker you'll never take a cold call again. Series 2: The Fonejacker shows he's still king of the prank phone call with more audacious attempts to scam and confuse the public in Fonejacker Doovde Series 2.
