Doon Your Way was a show combining several satirical elements. While at first appearing to be a parody of the now defunct BBC Radio 4 series Down Your Way, the show always gets interrupted by pirate radio station Flush FM, fronted by motormouthed, Estuary-voiced DJ Chantal, broadcasting from a Portaloo in Peckham. Our Review: This series, which combines satire and character comedy, is notable for giving Doon Mackichan a break in her own style of comedy. It came after she had finished on The Day Today, but before her success in Smack the Pony. |
