O.T.T.

1982 · 1 season

A chaotic late-night variety romp of sketches and stunts that plays like a rowdy, smirking party you half-watch.

Overview
O.T.T. was a late-night adult version of the anarchic ATV children's show Tiswas, but made by its ITV franchise successor Central Independent Television. It was broadcast at 11.00pm on Saturday nights for one series in 1982. It was created and presented by Chris Tarrant, and also starred ex-Tiswasians John Gorman, Lenny Henry and Bob Carolgees. Helen Atkinson-Wood was the female sidekick replacement for Sally James, who stayed behind to present the concurrent and final series of Tiswas alone.
How it feels
Absurd, campy, satirical and light. Brisk and fine in the background.
About
Media, celebrity, gender
Content
Strong sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
