This is Dom Joly is a spoof chat show presented by Dom Joly, originally shown on BBC Three in 2003. It featured interviews, live bands (complete with animals dancing around the band), "video diary" sketches, and the chance for a guest to describe an activity "in a nutshell".
It followed the global success of Trigger Happy TV for Channel 4 with Joly's move to the BBC. It did not meet the success of his previous project, though reviewers had some praise. In a review from The Standard, Lydia Slater writes, "One of the funniest sketches on This Is Dom Joly is a mockumentary, in which Joly introduces us to his monstrous relations: a bored Bosnian wife, a psychotic servant and a gaga, kleptomaniac father.'"
