What do Prince Harry, Paddington Bear and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer have in common?
The trio are set to appear in the next season of iconic puppet comedy Spitting Image, which is embracing the world of YouTube vodcasts.
Spitting Image: The Rest Is Bulls*!t has dropped teaser episode today and will launch on YouTube in the fall.
The series has gone 21st century with comedy appearances from Prince Harry, Starmer, Vladimir Putin, Elon Musk and Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Today’s teaser gives insight into Prince Harry’s “truth” as he tries to “make a sh*t ton of money out of podcasting,” amongst other things.
The new series will be led creatively by Al Murray and Matt Forde, two of the writers of the stage show Idiots Assemble: Spitting Image The Musical.
Spitting Image was a feature on UK screens between 1984 and 1996 and returned to the now-defunct BritBox in 2020.
Spitting Image: The Rest Is Bulls*!t is produced by Avalon, the producer and director is Matt Stronge, and it is executive produced by Richard Allen-Turner, Jon Thoday and Roger Law. The new series is written by Al Murray and Matt Forde.
