Facejacker

Kayvan Novak once again wreaks havoc with the general public, but this time he gets up close and personal.

Disguised with the aid of prosthetics, Kayvan plays a dazzling multitude of fictional characters, some familiar and some brand new, including: the charismatic and many times divorced car salesman, Terry Tibbs (who manages to infiltrate TV shows such as Come Dine With Me, Secret Millionaire and a TV shopping channel); scamster Augustus Kwmbe, whose hypnotherapy service is really a front for stealing bank account details; and infuriating complain monger, Dufrais. New faces include charlatan art critic Brian Badonde and Dr Ali, former plastic surgeon to the late Saddam Hussein. All are thrust into real-life situations where Kayvan’s targets (unsuspecting passers by) have no idea what’s coming their way.
