The original pilot episode of Harry Hill's TV Burp.
In this first episode of the series, Harry pokes fun at the week's TV including soaps, Cruise Ship and Celebrity Fat Club – I mean Fit Club. He also takes the Mickey out of people like David Dickinson (""I am the hunter!"") and Ozzy Osbourne (who recreates safety when crossing the road). Harry also pays a visit to Emmerdale as a health inspector and tells you how to recreate the show's title sequence: run your eyes over a tray crammed with broccoli. We also have a ‘Severe Gail (Platt from Coronation Street) Warning', a fight between Doctor Who (Tom Baker) and Harry Potter to see who is better and discover if Hitler was gay.
Harry Hill once again takes the Michael out of the week's television. This time, he reveals who could be hiding in the Big Brother household: Osama bin Laden. This edition pokes fun at the soaps, Celebrity Fat Club – I mean Fit Club and David Dickinson. We also have another ‘Severe Gail (Platt from Coronation Street) Warning' and Harry visits the set of The Bill (where he goes on the beat as a policeman). There's also a fight between a red nose and Pudsey Bear to see which charity event is better: Red Nose Day or Children In Need and find out what happens if you throw your tie on the floor in a snake-like shape and look down on it: the EastEnders title sequence (the tie resembles the Thames).
Doctor Zhivago and Rik Waller are among the shows and celebrities Harry Hill takes the Mick out of in this edition. We also meet Harry's ventriloquist dummy of Dr. Zhivago. The comedian also meets the hopefuls on game show Mr Wright. Also contains a fight between Winston Churchill and Admiral Nelson to see who's the Greatest Briton and tons more!
Jokes this time range from a suitcase in Emmerdale to The Bill, from Celebrity Big Brother to Jamie's Kitchen. Harry also visits the hopefuls on Pop Stars: The Rivals and takes the mess out of Crocodile Diaries. Also includes a food fight between Gary Rhodes and Ainsley Harriott.
More madness at the look of this week's TV including Robot Wars, Holby City and Time Flyers. Harry reveals that they use beige sofas on hospital dramas whenever you see a close up of a body being cut open. Then, one of Harry's production crew drops the ketchup bottle down the sofa and Harry has to take it to Holby City. There is also a fight between Liam Gallagher and Charlotte Church to see who is better at being nasty. Find out how Harry reacted when Channel 4's Coronation Street documentary Seven Days That Shook the Street stole his fight idea and what happened next and why Bruce Forsyth has to have everything blown up ten times it's size. From a World War II documentary, Harry enters a competition to win £1000 by trying to create a device capable of killing a sheep from 100 yards. (He tries burning it by putting a giant magnifying glass (borrowed from Brucie) at the sun and burning it but it fails. Harry kills the sheep in the end with a picture of Anne Robinson.) We also see who h
A special Christmas edition of the programme. Harry Hill, as usual, makes fun of the Television programmes over the week and comes up with an answer to the unusual toy on Emmerdale, a Spoogleman: a wooden spoon with a silly face and arms and legs made of straws. He also visits the BBC to get clips from upcoming EastEnders episodes but fails. There is also a fight between Father Christmas and Jesus to see who is better. Other jokes revolve around The Bill and Vain Men. Harry finds out the character in Coronation Street (Steve McDonald) who he believes previously had a sex change, as well as Hayley Cropper and looks at TV which will be shown over the New Year. We also see who is starring in nearly every pantomime over Christmas: Sooty. Harry concludes the show by mentioning the doom and gloom in the soaps over Christmas (death in EastEnders, stalker lurking about in Emmerdale and a serial killer on the loose in Coronation Street and The Bill) and finishes the series with a sinister Chris
In the opener to Series 2, Harry pokes fun at TV shows such as the recent Henry VIII drama with Ray Winstone, Auction Man and soaps such as Coronation Street (Todd's gay kiss with Nick Tilsley) and Emmerdale (Zak's return and Terry's stroke). Also includes a visit to Coronation Street, a fight between illusionists David Blaine and Derren Brown and all the usual mayhem.
In this week's edition of TV Burp, Harry jokes about people shouting in the soaps, Pop Idol judge Neil Fox using the word ‘tad' all the time, Holiday Showdown and the mysterious pop band in Heartbeat: the Trinks. Not The Troggs or The Kinks, The Trinks. Other musical madness revolves around the video to Britney Spears and Madonna's single ‘Me Against the Music'.

Sheelagh Murphy's (played by Bernie Nolan) husband from The Bill who never blinks but she does, a fight between Pop Idol judges Neil Fox and Simon Cowell, a look at Harry's fireworks and all the usual antics.

In the first episode of series 3, EastEnders, Back to Reality, Gender Swap, Footballers' Wives (Chardonnay's funeral), Coronation Street (the baby Patience scenario), Dirty Laundry, Safe As Houses and Faking It come under scrutiny. Now that we know The Bill's Reg Hollis is a Tears For Fears fan, Harry shows us a preview of what will happen in the police drama next week: Reg Hollis singing songs by the band while on duty arresting criminals. Also includes ""I'm an Insect: Get Me Out of Here!"", a take on ""I'm a Celebrity: Get Me Out of Here"" set in Jordan's stomach, a search to find a replacement for Robert Kilroy-Silk (including one where Harry dressed as Coronation Street's Blanche Hunt wearing a dodgy looking wig and big goggly eyes comes on saying ""He's a loony and she's a man?"" referring to Roy and Hayley Cropper), a fight between Davina McCall and Cilla Black now that Love on a Saturday Night has replaced Blind Date and all the usual things.

Jokes and gags this time revolve around Heartbeat, Club Reps, Learner Drivers and Casualty. Harry spotted a new character in Coronation Street: a gas canister with gauges that makes it look like it has human features. We also have a sketch on a day in the life of this gas canister and ‘Cooking with the Slaters' (from EastEnders). Harry also wonders who those people are in the Emmerdale title sequence as none of them are characters in the soap. Plus there's a fight between James Hewitt and Kieran Fallon and all the regular madness.
Gags and jokes this time include a Woody Allen look-alike in EastEnders, a David Bowie look-alike in Learner Drivers, impersonations in Emmerdale, Frank's death in Footballers' Wives, a new character called Clops in The Bill and a drink called Stelberg in Coronation Street. From Channel 4 documentary Who Kidnapped Shergar?, Harry makes fun of the man in charge of the investigation, Chief Superintendent James Murphy (the fact that he wasn't very knowledgeable about what was going on and relied on sources like the news to provide evidence). We also have a sketch called ‘Murphy and Horse' (featuring John ""Huggy"" McCrirrick) where James Murphy and Shergar go around fighting crime. There's also a fight between Paul Michael Glaser/David Soul and Ben Stiller/Owen Wilson to celebrate the release of the new Starsky and Hutch movie to see which version of the 1970s police series is better: old or new and all the usual malarkey.
This time on Harry Hill's TV Burp, stuff ranges from an Avid Merrion (from Bo' Selecta!) look-alike in Heartbeat, a log with shades on making it look like rapper Jay-Z in EastEnders, face transplants and disappearing patients in Holby City, how Fred Elliott tells you what meat he's eating in Coronation Street, dramas such as Footballers' Wives and Murder City and factual shows such as If and A Life of Grime. From documentary Noah's Ark, where Jeremy Bowen (off Breakfast Time) attempts to prove or disprove the bible story, Harry creates his own version: ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears' where he pretends to be Bowen and attempts to prove or disprove the fairy tale. Plus we have a fight between Bowen and God and all the regular malarkey.

Harry also creates his own ‘If' documentary: ""If… TV Continues to Get Worse"" predicting events and shows in the far future. The fight this time is between the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Footballers' Wives to see who is better. As it is the last episode of the series, the credits are displayed against images of Fred Elliott's face.

Harry noticed two peculiar nurses in Casualty: a short, blonde haired nurse dressed in pink who is constantly seen walking up and down the wards and then a tall, blonde haired nurse, also dressed in pink who is constantly seen walking across the wards widthways. Plus, we get a fight between these two nurses and all the regular chaos.
Gags include Mike Reid on Age Swap, Holiday Showdown, tea in EastEnders, Coronation Street, Emmerdale and The Bill. As well as this we have a sketch on the bad side of meerkats, a fight between a shark and a toaster and all the usual craziness.
Among the gags are cooking Conger Eel in Beyond River Cottage, Nigel Marven's Animal Nightmares: Rats, a football tournament in EastEnders, Emmerdale, BBC 3 drama Conviction, The Bill, Holiday Showdown and Coronation Street. Harry sarcastically comments that he MUST see the next episode of Selling Houses Revisited when the couple decide whether or not to buy the house. What follows are a series of sketches, each depicting a historical event: the trenches in France on Christmas Day 1914, Albert Einstein in his laboratory and the Titanic, where the people in each place comment they must not miss Selling Houses Revisited for the same reason (to see if the couple buy the house)! As well as this, we have a fight between a brown rat and black rat and all the regular craziness.
Shows that fall victim to Harry's scrutiny this week include Wife Swap, Britain's Worst Mother-In-Law, With a Little Help from My Friends, Emmerdale, Foyle's War, Coronation Street, The Bill and Musicality.

The comic takes an irreverent look at festive television offerings, sorting the telly treats from the turkeys.
