A new TV series produced by KUMB Podcast presenter James Longman airs for the first time on ITV2 tonight.

'Glitchy' is a fast-paced, sketch/prank hybrid that features actor Ryan Sampson and parodies much-loved and recognisable television shows, throwing them into a surreal and parallel television world.

All the TV shows in Glitchy are fake - but the unsuspecting members of the public believe them to be real, as you can see in the clip below!





Ryan plays a multitude of characters offering his twisted take on a multitude of TV shows including 24 Hours in A Phone Box, Date My Daughter, Embarrassing Personalities and Mezmo: Street Magician.

The members of the public who participate in each sketch will unknowingly be the stars of their very own show - and always with an unexpected twist.

Glitchy is a six-part series and you may see the opening episode of the Talkback-produced show on ITV2 at 10pm tonight. Longman, who hosts the KUMB Podcast alongside fellow presenter Chris Scull is the series' Executive Producer.
