Who is America: Sacha Baron Cohen uses the 'paedophile detector' on Roy Moore

Tonight Showtime airs the third episode of Who Is America?, a show that might be Sacha Baron Cohen’s most audacious project yet.

We’ve already seen former Dick Cheney, Bernie Sanders and Dana Rohrabacher be fooled by the comedian, and we know Sarah Palin and Roy Moore are still to come – will tonight be their turn for humiliation?

So far we’ve seen the characters Billy Wayne Ruddick Jr., PhD, Dr. Nira Cain-N’Degeocello, Rick Sherman, Erran Morad and Gio Monaldo get people to publicly back absurd initiatives, and episode 3 very possibly might introduce a new absurdist caricature.

Episode 2 was stronger and sharper than one, climaxing with a hilarious scene in which the residents of Trump-voting small town were informed by Dr. Nira that the millions of dollars worth of investment in their town would come in the form of America’s largest Mosque.

Can Baron Cohen top this stunt? Watch along with me below as I give my thoughts on the episode and fill you in on all the notable people who unwittingly participate.

There's been some very funny segments in the show so far, but nothing that has really nailed this utterly polarised, intellectually dishonest era we're in

Here's that Roy Moore interview again in full:

In case you missed it in the news, Jason Spencer, the Republican state representative from Georgia who ended up screaming "n*****" and "sand n*****" in last week's episode has now lost his job. Ha!

Four episodes remain this series. Given he's known for his open door policy, there is a chance, a TINY chance, but a chance nonetheless that Sacha managed to get Trump on the phone. What a season finale that would be.

Shout out to the hair and make-up team on this show, who have done an unbelievable job in disguising Sacha, whose face is known so well by this point.

Still can't believe that at no point did this man think 'Hmm, maybe this isn't legit.'
