A House in History

Radio 4, 11.30pm

Will Farrell and Ben Rowse,

right, the creative team

behind Petrichor, the (rather

good) spoof online comedy

about a group of people

haplessly making a short film,

have turned their satirical

attention to reality TV shows.

The fictional A House in

History follows one family as

they live in a 1940s house to

experience all the wartime

privations (in a manner not

unlike Channel 4’s The 1940s

House from 2001).

Unfortunately, the show is

also over-budget and the

producers need to ensure that

the family fail to complete the

six weeks in the house that

would win them £100,000.

So things get silly. Ben Dowell
