Smack the Pony
Created by Victoria Pile
On Channel 4
A high-energy, irreverent sketch comedy built on stylish absurdism and uninhibited female humour, designed to entertain rather than provoke existential thought.
The stylish, original and uninhibited Emmy award-winning sketch show starring Fiona Allen, Doon Mackichan and Sally Phillips. Distinctly contemporary. Decidedly maverick.
