“We can’t touch the billionaires they’re job creators - for us after we get out of here”
So true
Where's that quote from
@@alecneate76 1:17
Thats literally what the GQP says, but they dont define who gets the jobs...that was perfect
WORD
This documentary is so realistic, how did they hide the cameras?
Yeah and those boom mic's?!
Oh Look! It's Time to Pop the G7 NWO Bubble - Yaaaaaay!!!
Ask Matt Wanksock.
😅🤣😂
No idea about where the cameras are but I have another question. Where are these stature of Boris and his prats! Sorry I mean party? And where is the closes river!?
That Sajid Javid puppet looks spot on.
What puppet? I only see Sajid.
It's the only one that bares any resemblance.
*Jabid
It's amazing that they got him to play himself.
I have never seen a guy that so legit looks like he just stepped out of a flying saucer.
This show doesn't need writers, the government are jokes enough.
The government are better writers than this lot
These guys write the government
@Krut Hawort Totally. Everything this government does, you just couldn't make it up.
In the past, Spitting image had to frequently exaggerate things. Sometimes they predicted events (currie and major... they thought it to outrageous to be real)... now?
Spitting Image don't need to exaggerate😂 if anything, they are contain less pillockory 😂
You're all wrong.
It would seem George Orwell "writes" for the government..🤔
Seems to me most of governments since WW the 2nd have been following 1984 a some sort of guidelines on how to govern..
Anyways loved the vid.
When Priti said:
"ooo, the smell of human kindness "
- then started to dissolve hilarious.
If only this government were actually this decent and caring in real life.
I hope we will see DC planning his next moves from his spaceship.
He isn't in politics anymore is he. Why would they bring him back. (If he is still in politics ignore what I've said)
We can't tax the billionaires they are job creators .... for us ... when we get out of here...... AND THAT ISN'T JUST SATIRE... THAT'S OUR WHOLE POLITICAL SYSTEM LAID BARE!!!
... AND WHILE I'M HERE I'M GONNA TELL YOU SOMTHING ELSE!!! COVID WAS BIO ENGINEERED SO THE BILLIONAIRES COULD MAKE FORTUNES VIA LOCKDOWNS AND DIRTY VACCINE PUSHING!!!!
@@robertcasey966 L
You mean.. from Durham..
@@robertcasey966 I don't agree with what you're saying. But it could just as easily have been socially engineered. What interest would China have in making Billionaire's richer. Most countries have suffered economically due to Covid anyways. Why would politicians have any interest in making these companies richer anyway. They're already swimming in cash and other than a president or prime Minister, who would be interested in talking to a random politician. Plus they all get a benefit of they stay in Parliament long enough.
Raving Gove is sooooo good. And Sajid , did they actually make a puppet or ask him to cameo for the day
I'm gonna miss having hancock in these sketches. Now who are they going to bully?
And don't forget Cummings!
With patil around, anyone can be bullied
@@notrod5341 hahaha good one!
The working class?
Javid I think. He looks prime for being bullied!
At last , a true life reflection of how politicians make policies. I’ve always wondered how they come up with them.
Spitting image has become a fly on the wall documentary series 😂 I'm am convinced this *is* what went on. 😅🤣😂
I swear Sunak’s voice changes every time
It really does. In the Fox Man sketch he sounded more nasally, in the Rishi Sunak Christmas song sketch he sounded more refined and upper class and in the sketch where Cummings was reading his mind he sounded like his throat was blocked up. Why do they keep doing this?
Wait till you here biden
@@Bodabodabroadcast if you ask me any changes to Biden’s character from last season are good. I didn’t like how the show played into the “sleepy Joe” shit instead of parodying how the real person acts like they did with Trump
@@mrcritical6751 But it was accurate and the voice fit Biden. I love the idea of Biden being some clueless old man who somehow walked into the oval office in the shit storm Trump left. Now he just seems like a personality rehash of the impatient Elon musk, hell, the voice is transforming to elon too!
Sunak's puppet is also far too tall. He should be half the height of Gove at most. The guy is tiny.
Thank you for uploading this documentary. It was hard to watch but I think everyone should see it to understand the horrors that are talking place in the country right now.
Writes itself really
1:59 Still the best line of the first episode!
How are we going to pay for that?
Well how did we pay for all the Covid stuff?
Don’t really know.
😂
Clapping?
Clapping...
Did they pay your wages though ? They paid mine . That’s my vote . Thought you lot loved tax rises
Sums it up perfectly
I'm glad someone else noticed that Patel drops letters to blend in seamlessly with the working class
WE can't touch billionaire s they are Job creators for us after we get out of here . So true 👌👌👌👌
Lex Greensill and Cameron aka Lord Snooty!
Disappointing lack of Latin / Greek in this one. Was hoping for a "Bubble Maximus!"
Spitting Image used to be funny because it exaggerated all the various traits of the politicians.
Now there’s no room for exaggeration this is more like a documentary!
If only it was not a reflection of real life with Johnson and co
Millions still don't get it and try to defend them!
Labanaktis
@@bonumdalek7107 well million tory voters are braindead British Empire Apologists.
@@VisualdelightPro It appears to be the opposite. The Tory voters want the empire back and as they believe live in glory
Th entire point of the programme is that it is a (left-wing) reflection of politics and society.
The real cabinet aren't as constructive as this in meetings.
Brilliant! I particularly laughed at Patel's dropped 'g' each time.
Where did she do that?
@@jorgel4415 P. P. always omits her 'g' when speaking. Mercifully, she's now out of the public gaze.
@@stuartburgess2626 Thanks. English is my second language. I still don't understand what is the joke intended to be... thanks
@@jorgel4415 Your English is superb, Jorge. To explain, words such as 'going' or 'coming' would be said as 'goin' or 'comin' by our former Home Secretary. Have a lovely weekend.
@@stuartburgess2626 Thanks Stuart! I guess what I am trying to ask is, culturally, what does it mean to drop the Gs. Is it less "refined"? I know the Queen's english also drops some letters.
These are the little things that make are not obvious to non-native speakers. Have a good weekend too!
Fantastic. I watched this show in the eighties and this feels exactly the same. I really need to watch the full episodes :-)
Looks like a documentary
We want more this is hilarious
It's only funny because it's true.
@@LZE. very true.
Gove puppet cracks me up
They don’t have a clue I’d love to see boris and co’s reaction to this
I know he watches it, he’s said to a reporter that he sees his puppet as “flattering”
boris hasn't actually been too mad at spitting image he's kinda been supportive of its depictions of him
@@theengineerinabox2385 ...if not slightly more intelligent.
@alex kennedy I'm surprised it ever reached top 10 in the first place.
That time the year again when the tories write their own script about themselves for spitting image.
Nice to have the Show back for another series!
Jesus Christ I nearly wet myself when gove came in hahaha
How on Earth did the BBC get access to record this fly-on-the-wall doco? I was under the impression Downing Street was under armed guard
Okay, this is satirical comedy, but it could be classed as a documentary that details what CoUNTs these Tories really are.
99% of all politicians are self serving, immoral 'counts'. The Tories don't have a monopoly on those things.
@@jaysmith2858 The Tories are the worst for it though, by far.
@@jaysmith2858
Are you joking, the tories are masters of being not only self serving, but inviting their friends to the table as well.
If anyone can lose an 80 seat majority, Boris can 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
How bad is labour for the tortes to gain a majority. The current Labour Party has guaranteed a Tory government for many many years to come. Thankfully.
@@mylife2022 we can only hope...
These documentaries are great!
i'm meltinnnnn
“Care, what does that mean? Is it a place?” 😂
"Kindness" by Sunack?...smells like bullshit to me...
These are the real ones compared to the actual puppets we see on tv
Ok why does Rishi Sunak’s voice keep changing? Every time he shows up in SI he sounds different
Must have a throat problem
@@PaxKishania which one? personally I felt the voice in the Christmas song was the best
I checked Rishi's Voice actor on Wikipedia and it listed it as Gus Khan, however Gus Khan isn't listed as a voice actor in this episode's credits. So it seems like they changed it
@@AtommSixtyFour I heard they also changed Biden’s voice actor and it sounds like Coroni’s voice has changed too. Wonder why they’ve changed so many
I love this show so much!
This was funny. XD I got recommended this video and made me chuckle. Nice recommendation, CZcams.
Can’t stop watching Gove clubbing!!
When did Spitting Image stop being satire, and start becoming a way of just getting people to think "oh, that silly leadership!"?
1987?
Since it always existed
@BgmBuses2020 triggered 😂😂 look at your pfp textbook kiddy fiddler
@BgmBuses2020 just a joke when you racially abuse black people online tho yeah 😳🤔 different when satire triggers the rightoids
@BgmBuses2020 bless you, spoken truely like somebody who couldn't even get a job in Poundland and probably makes his money from illegally breeding Staffies.
glad these are back :)
This is too true to be funny.
Absolutely brilliant
This show is so accurate sometimes if I didn't laugh I'd cry :P
This needs a laugh track
...as it is way too real.
Javier puppet is the best, just cracks me up.
Quite a good documentary this one
love how the club music slows down like that
I will always love Gove clubbing in like that
Liquid kindness, I'm melting :)
As an oldie the new Spitting Image lacks some of the bite of the original but it seems to be finding its feet now.
I agree to an extent... With the actual politicians being so farcical, it must be difficult to do a satirical version of them tho'.
I guess it’s a generational thing then.
@@sadie376 Excellent! Hahaha
I've had a look at both and I honestly don't get why people are saying this series is tame. It's just as brutal as the stuff they did in the 80s
@@BuIIetBiII You should watch 'Yes Minister'. The BBC has its hand tied today thanks to this gov't and can't make programs like this anymore, but still watching the oldies I've noticed very little has changed...
If only the government was that good .
Pause at 1:56 and ask yourself what does Govey’s nose look like.
After you combine his nose with his cheeks it is simply genius when you realise…
This is fantastically spot on.
Satire morphing into a documentary ........... brilliant!
Even as a Canadian I appreciate this. Good shit!
Love this skits they are hilarious especially Boris Johnson 🤣🤣🤣
Michael Gove still clubbing 🤣
Liquid kindness...aaargh!
Oh so satisfying.
I can't help but be reminded of the old Genesis - Land of Confusion video from back in the 80's when I see these puppets and it's great! :D
This scene truly captures their essence.
Could we have walnut in a wig Diane Abbott counting Paperclips and never getting past 5? 😆😆😆
"Meltin'"
Lol.
Clubing Goveee, brilliant. Wait that could be read two ways.
Spot on!
Great 👌 one
Spot on
The best one yet. 🤣😂👍
Lmao “national insurance” ‘contribution’
I'm dying here :D
Probably one of the best so far! It wouldn’t be funny if it wasn’t so true
Very good
SI justs gets better n better🤣
his my favorite video ever petel lol on rishi's liquid kindness perfume lol
Love how they have captured how Patel can't pronounce the word endin' ing. Spot on there.
Brilliant 🤩
This is what could go on in Boris's house and probably does!
Priti is so realistic
Too nice compared to the real thing.
The funny thing is that this is probably what happens
Will hands......space......back to my place Hancock make an appearance!
"I'm meltin' "
A new season? Neat.
I wonder who are these people who voted down this 🤔🙄...
Who are you,self destructive monsters?
PS: More bubbles!
probably because if the last season was anything to go by, this show is not nearly savage enough. The voices are off and the jokes are too on the nose. The only redeeming feature are the puppets. Newzoids did this format alot better.
@@obnoxiousbastard The original show's cast-list of impressionists reads like a "Who's Who" of 80s and 90s British Comedy - Steve Coogan, Chris Barrie, Harry Enfield, etc. HIgh bar to try to match. Don't know why they don't try getting a few of them back. These days they could probably literally phone it in - and I mean that in the technological sense, not the half-arsing it sense.
Probably Tory activists.
@BgmBuses2020 Have you never noticed that comedy in general pokes fun at right-wingers more? That's because they're inherently more ridiculous. There's some comedy to be had with left-wingers, but not nearly so much. It's just the way of things.
That’s class……so clever!!!
"Huge bumps of ket!!" haha the gove puppet is so spot on he's hilarious
what does that even mean
@@zephyrr108 snorting ketamine
I am a little bit surprised that there was no mention of Boris having made changes to No10?
Raving Govey!🤣
Scarily accurate
I would trust these puppets running the country way before trusting the incumbent bunch. They seem a lot more realistic and competent.
My wallets melting tooo
why is rishi's voice different? in series one he had a different voice
Different voice actor I guess.
Probably quit?
I don't like Patel's new voice actress, old one was more realistic
@@Amazingmagicsam who is the new voice actresss for herr now?
rushing head long into Going Broke
😁 Interesting Cabinet meeting.
00:50 kindness by Rishi 🤣
There wasn’t even any kindness in it
Care? What does that mean? Yuk.
I can’t even laugh at the puppets of these real life puppets anymore. Their evil is beyond comedy.
Boris rolling
