About this album
Not The Nine O'Clock News is a sharp, fast-moving comedy album that distilled the BBC sketch show's corrosive wit into a studio release. Issued in 1980, it captures the group’s trademark mix of character comedy, topical satire and musical parody, taking aim at television, politics, religion and media culture with a pace that rarely lets up. The material reflects the era of late-1970s and early-1980s British broadcasting, when the show’s cast became widely known for edgy, well-observed humour that helped define television comedy of the period. As an album, it extends the programme’s appeal beyond the screen and showcases why the troupe became so influential.
