"'Borat Karabzhanov' is a Kazakhstani TV presenter who travelled around Britain finding about the UK in his exclusive show, 'Borat's Guide to Britain.' 'Ali G' originally found Borat's show while flicking through the foreign satellite stations after the five minutes freeview of the Fantasy Channel. It was Borat's job to meet and interview high profile members or groups of society to learn about British 'culture' and 'tradition'. Yet Borat, with a seemingly limited knowledge of English ended up making the situations most annoying if not embarrassing for the respondents, discussing aspects of life in a rather crude manner because he does not know better.

Of course, all of this was on Sacha's own show, 'Da Ali G Show' in early 2000. While the very first installment of Borat's Guide to Britain still proves to be most popular, the following episodes only encouraged interest in Sacha and his creation. However, similarly to Ali G, the undertones contained in the segments cannot be ignored. Borat often asks the upper echelons of Britain questions such as, "You are a... a homosexual?" To which respondents would usually reply with an emphatic 'no' in disgust, highlighting the small-minded 'traditionalist' views on such issues held by some people in society today. So far, little is known about Borat's supposed background."
