Just watch it on Youtube.

I watched it a couple of days ago. Like the original Spitting Image, it was funny in places.

Episode 1 simply never kept my interest, I watched it all the way through in anticipation of a skit being funny, and none did, maybe future episodes will.

My carer was watching Mr Bean on YouTube last evening and was in fits of laughter. He asked why I wasn't laughing. It's no longer funny said I.

Spitting Image always was hit and miss though. The last series before it was originally canned was pretty dire. The same was true with the last series of Monty Python.

Just not funny...which is a major problem for a comedy programme. The majority of members on this forum recognise this , so why can’t the programme makers!

Just watched it, Great puppets, rubbish script.
First time round you had a bit of shock value etc, doesn't work second time around in my opinion.
