The mysterious Michael Rimmer (Peter Cook) appears at a small advertising agency and soon takes over from the hapless employees, including the bumbling Pumer (John Cleese), skiving boss Ferrett and sexy secretary Tanya. Rimmer rises through the ranks of the agency, creating saucy marketing campaigns for Graham Chapman, before turning the firm into a successful polling company and moving into politics. With chicanery, manipulation, and relentless opinion polls, the Machiavellian Rimmer becomes MP for Budleigh Moor and acquires a trophy wife before rapidly working his way up, with charismatic deception, to even greater heights.

The Rise and Rise of Michael Rimmer review by Charlotte
Fantastic Political Satire

A political satire of great insight and humour. So closely resembles the modern relationship between PR men and politicians to be creepy. If you like Monty Python this is not to be missed.
