Closed Bring Back Spitting Image TV Show

Closed on

Spitting Image was a British satirical puppet show that aired on the ITV network for over a decade. The series was nominated for 10 BAFTA Awards, winning one for editing in 1989.

The series featured puppet caricatures of celebrities famous in the 1980s and 1990s. British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, American president Ronald Reagan, and the British Royal Family were the most prominent targets.

Most importantly, however, Spitting Image brought politics to the forefront of society, and sparked interest and debate in what is now become an area reserved for the corrupt elite. Bright back Spitting Image and restore our people's politics.
