This show, as well as Chute! has a similar plot. Ross Lee puts in these tapes which are scattered across the floor, and King Stupid controls random people to act "stupid" leading to a very funny skit.
This is what Wikipedia says about the show:
This show pretty much was awesome. It involved skits like DEVIL FINGER! and others. What I think is that, maybe this was a bad influence to kids that King Stupid might actually make their lives easier by making people act "stupid", and maybe that's why CBBC don't repeat it nowadays. You can go search it up on YouTube, i'm sure there's like a few episodes online, however the rest of the episodes are lost media, that's why I posted it here.
This is what Wikipedia says about the show:
Stupid! was a British television comedy sketch show aimed at children of primary and secondary school age, which was first broadcast on CBBC and subsequently BBC One.
Main characters
King Stupid (played in Series 1 by Marcus Brigstocke, and Series 2 by Phil Cornwell), an immortal who is the instigator of all stupidity. King Stupid has files on every human and can make them behave stupidly using an advanced computer system. The King resides inside his castle in the Etherworld, a pan-dimensional realm with upside-down wall sockets, which is home to many Deed Monarchs, each of which rule over different aspects of human behaviour. Queen Sensible, King Angry, Count Cruel, and King Wonderful all have unique personalities. The Ether World is also home to a myriad of ogres, imps, banshees, witches, boggarts and many other mythical creatures. Stupid is served by his gremlin butleries Goober.
Stupid’s work (or rather, play) is made all the more difficult by his annoying purple gremlin butler Goober (Rusty Goffe), whom he constantly refers to as a "bog house rat". Goober goes out of his way to make the King’s life miserable. Goober is normally given a variety of boring tasks by Stupid such as going to the supermarket and taking out the rubbish. The love-hate relationship between the King and Goober provides a sitcom-style element to the show with a self-resolving story arc throughout each episode.
Recurring sketch characters include Devil Finger!, Court Casey, Sarah (played by Stephanie Wookey), Jas (played by Stephanie Wookey), Jeff (played by Jimmy Akingbola), Box Boy, Gotta Go Joe, Time Team Archie (played by Travis Yates), Frank Boffin, Invisible Ian, Scout Leader (Dominic Coleman), Karen Jackson (played by Stephanie Wookey), Mr. Steven, Dinner Lady (played by Miranda Hart), Neil Bell, the Red Wall family, Matty, Makeover Mandy, Penny, Mr Quiver, Alan, Mark Dence (played by Travis Yates), Vince, the ice cream man (played by James Bachman), and Sid (Tony Bignell).
