"I would like to thank BBC Radio 4 for continuing my fever dream and giving me my own sketch show, something I’ve wanted since I was 10. I’ve been writing and performing my own sketches on social media for nearly twenty years so you could say I’m a pioneer. In fact, I encourage you to say this. To my face if you can." — Michael Spicer

Michael Spicer: No Room, a new sketch podcast from internet sensation Michael Spicer, whose online videos have amassed 100 million views, is coming to on BBC Sounds on 24 April. The ten-part series will bring Spicer’s unique style of character-led satire to listeners on BBC Sounds, with two episodes dropped weekly, followed by a Radio 4 broadcast later this spring.

Each episode will feature a take on the zeitgeist alongside sketches which brilliantly capture everything that provokes us: culture, politics, work...and other people. From an MP's hopeless social media videos and a billionaire who wants to be popular, to a football pundit's nonsensical analysis and Tony Blair looking back on the Iraq War as if it were a classic TV series, this is a show packed with razor sharp wit. Michael Spicer: No Room is an entertaining critique of the modern world by a comedian who isn't really suited to living in it. The series features original music and sound design by Augustin Bousfield, critically acclaimed for his production and composition with St. Etienne, and is produced by Matt Tiller.

Following on from the acclaimed Radio 4 sitcom, Michael Spicer: Before Next Door, a fictionalised telling of his rise to fame, this new vehicle showcases the writing and performing talent that regularly captivates Spicer’s online audience.

Julia McKenzie, Commissioning Editor for Comedy, Radio 4, says, "Michael Spicer is a brilliantly talented and very funny creator who’s superb at skewering pomposity, self-regard and incompetence in public figures as well as having fun with the absurdities and idiosyncrasies of the day-to-day. He’s deservedly much-loved by fans online and I’m delighted to be bringing his distinctive style of comedy to radio listeners too."

Michael Spicer says, "I would like to thank BBC Radio 4 for continuing my fever dream and giving me my own sketch show, something I’ve wanted since I was 10. I’ve been writing and performing my own sketches on social media for nearly twenty years so you could say I’m a pioneer. In fact, I encourage you to say this. To my face if you can. No Room is a show that brings my life on social media to BBC Sounds and Radio 4, so if you’ve ever enjoyed and shared my sketches online, you’ll enjoy this new show. And if you have ever shared my sketches online, thanks very much, it changed my life."
