Product Description
The nation's favourite presenter, Keith Chegwin, has been entertaining the British public for more than four decades with his zany brand of cheeky chappy chuckles. From Swap Shop to Cheggers Plays Pop, The Big Breakfast to GMTV, his irrepressible, upbeat energy has kept him at the top of his game - King of the live broadcast. But his reign is about to come to a sticky and gory end.
Much loved television personalities are being gruesomely despatched using a variety of breakfast condiments and as the body count grows, so does the hysteria. There appears to be no stopping the Breakfast Cereal Killer as he marches relentlessly towards his ultimate goal ... to KILL KEITH!
KILL KEITH is the hilarious horror film with a comedy twist that stars Marc Pickering (Sleepy Hollow, I Want Candy), Susannah Fielding (4,3,2,1), Joe Tracini (Hollyoaks, Coming of Age), David Easter (Family Affairs, The Bill), Tony Blackburn (BBC Radio 2), Joe Pasquale, Russell Grant (Strictly Come Dancing) and Keith Chegwin (GMTV, Swap Shop).

Product Description
United Kingdom released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital Stereo ), ANAMORPHIC WIDESCREEN (1.78:1), SPECIAL FEATURES: Anamorphic Widescreen, Behind the scenes, Commentary, Featurette, Interactive Menu, Scene Access, Trailer(s), SYNOPSIS: Kill Keith: Volume 1. Keith 'Cheggers' Chegwin is a household name and has been at the top of his game for nearly 40 years. He's an all round entertainer and has lived with us via our TV screens on Swap Shop as kids through to GMTV as parents. He is undoubtedly a national treasure, and for nearly four decades has been much loved by viewers young and old. The year is 2010 and hidden away in a damp dark and blood stain cellar is a stranger, a man, a figure in the dark, someone we'd rather not know. He sits through the small hours torturing himself watching Swap Shop on fast forward over and over again. Cheggers Plays Pop posters decorate the cellar walls. The stranger moves slowly around his memorabilia filled shrine; terrifying equipment of torture fill the cellar together with several slabs of dead meat hanging from meat hooks. In the corner a man is bound and gagged in a cage while being subjected to archive TV clips of Keith Chegwin. The stranger is on an evil crusade. What is this unhealthy obsession with Keith Chegwin? Is the stranger plotting to kill our much loved Keith? Innocent victims from around the country slowly start to disappear. The damp cellar accrues more bodies. The news headlines build of reports of a serial killer. Cheggers continues his daily TV show while the nation lives in fear of evil roaming the country. Body parts begin to surface hundreds of miles from where they disappeared. How safe is Keith? How long before the stranger fulfills his obsessive desires? ...Kill Keith

!!! Warning. This review may contain spoilers, but doesn't contain a naked Keith Chegwin. !!!
Whilst hapless script runner Danny(Marc Pickering) dreams of one day co-presenting Breakfast TV show 'Up At The Crack Of Dawn' with glamourous host Dawn(Susanna Fielding), in reality he's the butt of constant sniping from out-going host Cliff(David Easter). Meanwhile a nefarious 'cereal' killer is at work, busily making the short list for the job even shorter, as some of the nations favourites such as Joe Pasquale, Tony Blackburn and even Keith Chegwin are put in terible danger. Can Danny save the world of Breakfast telly from this monstrous threat?
This hilarious film is a laugh riot from start to finish. Whether approached as a good natured satire on cosy, safe morning television, or about the hunger for fame or simply as a gory comedy horror, the film works on all levels. Part of its success is the willingness of all participants to poke fun at their real on-screen personas, especially hilarious a grumpy Pasquale in a monkey costume.
There are too many stand out sequences to describe, but to name just a few, there is a great running gag involving Tony Blackburn and his 'double' and there is a very funny bit involving a cardboard cutout and a tray of sponge fingers.
As well as the likeable leads, there are many great supporting characters such as Brian Stokes(Stephen Chance), the vampiric poser of those inane quiz questions you find before the commercial break on Breakfast telly, and Andy(Simon Philips), the flatulent undercover reporter with a penchant for Hob Nobs.
Although more comedy than horror, there are some nice little homages to films such as 'Theatre Of Blood' and 'The Abominable Dr Phibes'. There is also a very funny parody of the Christopher Lee Dracula portrayal involving Stokes and his boss.
I loved every minute of this film, and I hope you will too. Ignore the po-faced negative reviews, and watch this film with an open mind. You might even like it. An unreserved 5 out of 5. Chegmate.

This is not the greatest film in the world. It's full of cheap gags, toilet humour and olympian swearing - which is why I really enjoyed it. The B-list celebs do a great job of sending themselves up, especially Keith, who given the chance could probably make a serious go of this acting lark. My favourite character is Cliff, a simple minded presenter with turrets.
You need the following to enjoy this:
A) a Friday night
B) a group of mates
C) a take-away
D) lots and lots of beer
It's a clever mickey take out of daytime TV which is well worth a watch.
