- Synopsis:
A milestone in television comedy, 'Spitting Image' lifted satire to a new level for over a decade through the 1980's and 90's. No target was safe from the series' gunsights: politicians of all persuasions, Ronald Reagan, the Pope and even the Royal Family could find themselves up for a ribbing on any given programme. Series One included the ongoing shenanigans of Ronald Reagan's administration in "The President's Brain is Missing", Thatcher trying to convince Robin Day of the benefits of cannibalism and Neil Kinnock pondering an offer to appear on 'The Tube'! Exceptionally topical, this complete first series featured the talents of Chris Barrie, Steve Nallon, Chris Emmett, John Glover, Phil Cool and Ade Edmondson. - Actors:
