With the world getting smaller and more turbulent, the time couldn’t be more appropriate for an iconic British satirical take on global events. Produced by Avalon (Taskmaster, The Russell Howard Hour, Catastrophe, Breeders, Last Week Tonight With John Oliver) throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, over 100 puppets have already been developed by socially distanced teams of artists ready for launch, including: Adele, Angela Merkel, Baby Yoda, Barack Obama, Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, Boris Johnson, Boris Baby, The Johnson Dog, Brad Pitt, Camilla Duchess of Cornwall, Chrissy Teigen, Covid-19, Cristiano Ronaldo, Dominic Cummings, Dominic Raab, Donald Trump, Dwayne Johnson, Ed Sheeran, Elon Musk, Elton John, Emmanuel Macron, Greta Thunberg, Grimes, Gwyneth Paltrow, Harry Styles, Idris Elba, Ivanka Trump, Jacinda Ardern, James Corden, Jeff Bezos, Joe Biden, Jürgen Klopp, Kanye West, Keir Starmer, Kim Kardashian, Lewis Hamilton, Mark Zuckerberg, Matt Hancock, Meghan Duchess of Sussex, Melania Trump, Michael Gove, Michelle Obama, Narendra Modi, Oprah Winfrey, Piers Morgan, The Pope, Prince Andrew, Prince Charles, Prince Harry, Prince William, Priti Patel, The Queen, Richard Branson, Rishi Sunak, RuPaul, Taylor Swift, Tiger Woods, Tyson Fury, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping, all falling under the show’s legendary gaze.
A next generation of satirical writers and voice artists are working with established talent to drive a new wave of ‘public service satire’. Writers on the show include: Al Murray, Bert Tyler-Moore & George Jeffrie (The Windsors), Bill Odenkirk (The Simpsons), Brona C. Titley (The Tracey Ullman Show), David X. Cohen (The Simpsons), Gemma Arrowsmith (The Tracey Ullman Show), Jason Hazeley & Nico Tatarowicz (Charlie Brooker’s Screenwipe/Murder in Successville), Karl Minns (Russell Howard’s Good News), Keisha Zollar (Astronomy Club), Laura Major (Famalam), Matt Forde, Patric Verrone (The Simpsons), Phil Wang, Richard Herring, Sophie Duker (Frankie Boyle’s New World Order) and Travis Jay (Dave Chapelle and Friends) with many more joining the growing team. Voice artists include: Billy West (Futurama), Debra Stephenson (The Impressions Show), Debra Wilson (Family Guy), Guz Khan (Man Like Mobeen), Indira Varma (Game of Thrones), Jess Robinson (The Imitation Game), John DiMaggio (Futurama), Lewis MacLeod (Dead Ringers), Lobo Chan (Killing Eve), Luke Kempner (The Imitation Game), Matt Forde (Unspun) and Phil LaMarr (Pulp Fiction), with many more joining as the puppet cast grows.

This is a new one. I believe the original one is in a museum.
Not sure whether to laugh or cry when I heard: 'Moral of the story is be a billionaire. Gawd 'elp us everyone!' We certainly need it with the current bunch of greedy conmen, incompetents and psychopaths in charge.

Rashford in with a touch of class
With all the news about Boris Johnson at the Christmas parties while everyone else was in lockdown, I think we should get a remix of Go Now
"That's my dorsal fin, you Berk!" 🤣
Still legends. Always was, always will be. Criminally underviewed.
Spitting Image is a bit like the Simpsons - it predicts the future lol! So Rishi replacing Bozo as the next prime minister!
I said that when Thatcher reappeared as a spirit in the Halloween special that perhaps she would appear as the ghost of Christmas Past

That chip cob at the end 😁
so disapointed that they didn't tell Thatcher about the situation with Covid 19. i guess they want to make references to the original tv series
I wish the whole special was based off a Christmas Carol
How is Michael Gove and Matt Hancock having Christmas dinner together weirdly adorable?
Where has Spitting Image gone? We need you back in this time of Partygate! Please 🙏🙏
The Gove puppet gets me every time 😂

Rishi Rich!
Margret Thatcher Haunts 10 Downing.
Ha, almost as funny as the Spitting Image of the 80's.
I only know most of these British figures from this show.
Great to see Rishi as an 80's teenager.
They managed to bring back the original voice actor for the 2020 Halloween special. How come they didn’t bring him back for this? I guess he didn’t want to do another short performance or the new team didn’t want to this time.
Boris has smashed that record, only they call it furlough now.
1:13 I need just a video of him beat boxing. I will watch it daily
Hahahahha govey is so funny
Thatcher is the perfect Ghost of the Christmas past
Weve had a month of controversy on record level for boris, i really hope they are making new episodes soon with the party scandal and corruption.
What marvellous caricatures.
If it only wasn't true
Lol Michael govee is my favourite 1:09 🤣🏴💙🤍
🤣🤣🤣 love it.
I don't think it's Steve Nallon doing Thatcher this time though
Gove's dance and hitting the nightclub DoDo Sth Sth oh oh or cracked me up.
How come Steve Nallon didn't return this time for Thatcher
Brilliant 🤣
out of curiosity, why is the og show not available anymore?
I'm sorry but I couldn't get past 30 seconds of this, thatcher doll freaked me tf out
Can we go back to the 90s
Awesome bad and cool!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
