Has anyone seen this British television show?

It's a 6-part mini-series about a man with a massive ego problem called Adonis Cnut (Think Baxter Stockman, only this guy is played by Rik Mayall), just to give you an example this guy's mighty ego, he can't settle for being called Professor, he has to be called "Quadruple Professor Adonis Cnut". Adonis works for 'The Council for International Progress', an organisation devoted to power through curuption and manipulation (Kinda like Bond's S.P.E.C.T.R.E.). A funny episode was when Adonis went on television to talk about human cloning,

Professor Brinsley: Listen I've flown 3000 miles to debate cloning, not to pay homage to Adonis Cnut's mighty ego.
Adonis: My ego will never be a mighty as your stomach, Brinsley. I fear you've taken the term intellectual heavy-weight rather too literally.
TV Hoast: Mr. Brinsley, if you could explain your current position.
Adonis: He can't cross his legs, coz his thighs are too fat.
Brinsley: Keep your eyes above that.
Adonis: Yes, rather like a blimp.
Brinsley: Okay! That it, son of a bitch! (Charges at Adonis, guards force him back in his seat)
TV Hoast: Professors! Could we please continue?
Brinsley: Okay! It's just as the song goes, they all laughed at Christopher Columbus when he said the earth was round, they laughed when Anderson recorded sound-
Adonis: Yes and we all laughed when you got stuck in the studio enterence.
