'''Da Ali G Show''' is a comedy show, where comedian [[Sacha Baron Cohen]] interviews unsuspecting celebrities and guests as a variety of characters. The main character is [[Ali G]], a satire on the British [[urban]]/"[[chav]]" culture, using [[rap]], [[hip hop]] and other symbols of the American gangsta rap image, but subverting them by setting them in [[Staines]]. The show also features [[Borat]], a discomforting Kazakhstani man who makes misogynist and culturally inappropriate references at every opportunity. Bruno is the other character which Baron Cohen plays - a gay, Austrian fashion and showbiz journalist, interviewing fashion and entertainment personalities, often outside nightclubs, and getting them to say outrageous things. The Borat character was used as the centrepiece of a feature-length film - [[Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan]], and the Bruno character is planned for a similar feature-length film.
