A surreal, deliberately unsettling sketch comedy built on absurdism and media satire, where the humour derives from discomfort and the refusal of conventional narrative.

Adapted from Blue Jam, a late night radio show, Jam consists of six shows featuring dark humour and unsettling sketches unfolding over an ambient soundtrack. From the mind of Chris Morris.
