 Observer | 'I was arrogant until fame made me nicer'
What Dom Joly, the prankster best known for shouting into an enormous mobile phone, appreciates most about his celebrity status is that other famous people such as Robert Smith of the Cure and Louis Theroux return his calls.
The best parodies are based on a recognisable truth, yet Joly gives the impression of starting with a distorted sense of his own celebrity before he sets about the distorting it for the rest of us.
The first project that made it to the screen was This Is Dom Joly, a talkshow that toyed with the conventions of a talkshow.

That said, goth hit Joly hard as a teenager - which explains the glee he takes in revealing that he and Robert Smith have since become friends: 'The first time he came to my house, I had to run upstairs ahead of him and hide all the pictures of him.
With Joly's recent Fairport epiphany in mind, the Doctor also sent the eponymous debut EP by London psych-folk troupe Garden and the eponymous album by Fotheringay.
It turns out that Joly had been a Divine Comedy fan, but was unfamiliar with Absent Friends: 'Much of it, ' he enthused, 'was quite astonishing.'

Moving through the US, Dom and Pete try to unravel and understand the contradictions of a nation, proud of its civil liberties, where 16 year-olds can drive, 18 year-olds can buy firearms but only those over 21, the highest minimum age in the world, can drink alcohol.
Then there’s Russia, where the relationship with vodka is well documented, highlighted earlier this year by the nation’s outcry at the sudden shortages of their favourite spirit, sparking fears of riots when production came to a standstill.
Hanging out with the locals, observing their rituals and indulging in the occasional drink, purely for research purposes of course, Dom Joly will bravely attempt to combine alcohol with entertainment.
