Just been watching a clip on TV of Maggie and her Cabinet. I used to love this show. Made me think, today politicians are so dull, they could never bring it back. Although I suppose BoJo would make a great subject. |

The portrayal of Douglas Hurd as a kind of an upper class school boy, Maggie wearing a suit and Reagan being a complete fruit loop - sublime satire. You're right, the politicians we have now are rather bland. Boris is a noticeable exception, as would be Livingstone and er um er - that's it! |

"Ed miliband would make an easy target. As would the two toffs Cameron and Osbourne. "
Gerald Scarffe said this morning he found Cameron bland and difficult to make anything out of. |

With all the members of her Cabinet around her at No10, the waiter comes in to take the order for lunch..
Waiter: "Mrs Thatcher, what would you like for lunch?"
Thatcher: "I'll have the chicken"
Waiter: "And what about the vegetables..?"
Thatcher: "Oh they'll have the same"
Absolute classic. Along with their portrayal of the Queen Mum as Gracie Fields, I do miss Spitting Image....  |

Gonna have to torrent some episodes I think...
David Steele as the tiny tiny puppet sitting alongside David Owen's ever so cool full sized one. Inspired imagery. |
