I thought it already has returned under the title "Brexit"?

I should imagine many of the 'Brexit' main players will be given prominent parts :)

I remember this 80 comedy

I also remember the intro song, I think I do

"Heil to the chef who's brain is missing"
-I could have remembered it wrong.

Classic ^ :D

If its as well written, offensive and non partisan as last time, then its should be a gas :) if it attempts to be even slightly Safe and PC, it will be garbage.

I agree, lets all hope it will kick this PC junk up the rear end, we all need real comedy.

Yep, if it doesn't receive a substantial amount of complaints from the thin skinned, and have Guardian Columnists writing articles titled, "Spitting Image was funny, BUT....."
Then its a failure.

But if its good, then any politician who complains about it should be fired immediately.
I say that because some of them almost seem to think they are beyond ridicule nowadays.

One or two of the characters haven't changed in appearance even to this day.
