A milestone in television comedy, SPITTING IMAGE lifted satire to a new level for over a decade through the 1980s and ’90s. SPITTING IMAGE: THE COMPLETE NINTH SERIES (12) is available on DVD from today, 8 July 2013, RRP £12.99.
No target was safe from the SPITTING IMAGE spotlight: politicians of all persuasions, Thatcher, Nelson Mandela and even the Royal Family could find themselves up for a ribbing on any given week. In this series Kinnock goes missing in a bid to win over the voters, the Queen goes ‘street’ and Bros wonder why they’re not famous anymore.
The set features the combined talents of Ian Hislop, Harry Enfield, Jan Ravens, David Baddiel, Steve Coogan, Pamela Stephenson, Rory Bremner, Alastair McGowan, Hugh Dennis and Steve Punt – amongst many others.
BAFTA nominated many times, Spitting Image won a Bronze medal at the Montreux TV Festival in 1984, firmly establishing its success.
