Viceland video: Tim Key's poetic majesty

D
by Dan

If you own a TV or a radio then you really should have heard of Tim Key. That's because if you have a radio you should only really be listening to Radio 4, upon which the comedian has a show, and if you have a TV you should only really be watching shows made by Charlie Brooker. Tim wasn't in Dead Set, but he was in the amazing Newswipe and the slightly less good (but still great) Screenwipe. He is also the greatest poet ever to have lived. Compared to his work, The Waste Land is a bundle of shits strung together with farts and lies. He agreed to read some of his work for our cameras.
