The Mash Report is a British comedy on BBC Two. It satirises the news and is hosted by Nish Kumar.[1] First aired in July 2017, it is a TV show spin-off of The Daily Mash, a satirical website.[2] The first series comprised four episodes. The second series, of six episodes, began broadcasting on 18 January 2018.

Chortle regarded the series as a successful UK version of The Onion.[3]

Harassment Lessons

A segment, in the first show of the second series, was watched online more than 11 million times in two days (eventually reaching more than 27 million views). It featured Rachel Parris mocking the idea that men are afraid to compliment women in case they are accused of sexual harassment.[4]
