The Passive-Aggression of the Christ

Doug Chaplin links to a sketch from last week's The Mitchell and Webb Look about the moon landing conspiracy theory. This week, not only did they send up the Princess Diana conspiracy theory, but they also included a brief sketch called The Passive-Aggression of the Christ. As far as I can make out, it's not yet been copied onto YouTube, but the whole episode is still available on iPlayer. The sketch is about 14 minutes in. That said, the title is probably the funniest thing about it. Overall the series has been rather hit and miss. As with previous series some real gems - not least when they take on religion - but they need to learn when to kill off repeating sketches. The post apocalyptic quiz was wearing thin last series, but has continued in each episode this series as well.

However, this is probably a good moment for me to link to M&W's takes on the Good Samaritan and Abraham as well.
