Drop the Dead Donkey
Drop the Dead Donkey is a situation comedy that aired on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom between 1998 and 1990. It's set in the offices of"GlobeLink News", a fictional television news organization. Recorded near transmission, it used news events that were contemporary to give the programme a much greater sense of realism. Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin created it. The show had an ensemble cast, which makes stars of Haydn Gwynne, Stephen Tompkinson and Neil Pearson.
The show started with the acquisition of GlobeLink an allusion, by press mogul Sir Roysten Merchant to Robert Maxwell or even Rupert Murdoch. Truly, Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin note it had been fortunate for their libel attorneys that both men shared the very same initials. The show is mostly predicated on the continuing conflict between your staff of GlobeLink, directed by editor George Dent, since they make an effort to maintain the company being a significant news organisation, and Sir Roysten's righthand individual Gus Hedges, wanting to help get the show more sensationalist and suppress stories that might harm Sir Roysten's business empire.
The show was awarded the Best Comedy Award at the 1994 BAFTA Awards. That the show won Best New TV Comedy in 1990, Most Useful Channel 4 Comedy at 1991, and Most Useful Channel 4 Sitcom at 1994.
