The 11 O'Clock Show was a satirical late-night British television comedy series on Channel 4, which featured topical sketches and commentary on news items.
The series ran for a number of years in the late 1990s, most notably while hosted by Iain Lee and Daisy Donovan.
Ricky Gervais became a fairly regular 'reporter' on the show (replacing the 'Ali G' character played by Sacha Baron Cohen) appearing to show ignorance of current events, and impart feelings and opinions on subjects which later appeared in parts of his stand-up.
