Blackwood appeared on the satire comedy series Brass Eye in 2001, during the episode Paedogeddon!, and is remembered for his facetious description of how paedophiles could hack into computers and make them release fumes in order to subdue children. He even sniffed a keyboard, claiming that it made him feel more "suggestible".[4] He also warned watching parents that exposure to the fumes would make their children "smell like hammers".[5]
