    Lightbulb Newzoids

    Brand new 6-part series of the satirical sketch show ... taking its cue as the natural successor to the still popular 1980s creation, 'Spitting Image'


    Blending traditional puppetry and animation in poking fun at politicians in the run-up to the General Election, it's to be hoped the show will live up to to the reputation of its predecessor.

    Kicks off at 9 o'clock tonight on ITV. Can't wait to see the rubberised versions of Miliberk, Balls & Co.

    Note too, the updated series will continue to feature the usual targets - including the Royals - as well as prominent figures from the sporting and entertainment worlds.

    So be ready with a suitable missile to chuck through your 48" screen, Ded ... cos I believe there's even a caricature of your favourite tennis star, Andy Murray!

    ... so did I. Especially the scene where HM *farted on the very mention of Camilla's curries ... *which, due to my being partially deaf, only became apparent from following the subtitles.

    Myrna, on the other hand, expressed the opinion that the Queen ought to be treated with reverence and not mocked.
