Watched some of it but, gah, don't like it because they're just making fun of the guy - who even though I'm not his biggest fan he is a good guy and the leader of my party. That, and they just got a bunch of facts wrong and abandond all sense.
Tony Blair doesn't live in 10 Downing Street, he's in 11! He and Gordon swapped houses because Tony had kids and Gordon didn't at the time, and 11 is nicer and bigger. It's not exactly a rare or hard to come by fact, and they just ignored it completely!
I did giggle at a fair few bits, but I pitied the poor man if he would ever be in such a situation. I do give him credit for what he has done because in his place I would have no doubt moved to Bali or something.
It was a parody, but it was a well done one, and as a satire it was quite clever.
The 30 greatest political satires on after it rocked my world.
Sad thing is, the time under his... Rule I suppose is the best word if not entierly acurate, is going to be rememberd for Iraq and the 'war on terror' more than anything else, and he's done a lot of good stuff.
And it may have been a parody, but it didn't seem like that to me, nor my father, and even so, they could have bothered to get their facts straight.
As I said, I didn't see all of it, but if they couldn't get the facts about where he lives straight then my goodness...
Ahaha, yeah, that show ruled. I watched it with Christine and we got into a debate about whether or not involvement in Afghanistan and Iraq was correct and whether it should be sustained. We totally disagree with each other XD It'd be nice if it made them think, though they probably won't watch it themselves, it'll be some lowly aide who then has to report on it.
The 30 greatest political satires was good too, but why on earth did they get Kennedy to do it with Howard?
Oi, a drunkard and an idiot, it was like two planks of wood speaking to each other.
This country needs another 'Have I Got News For You.' I miss that. The constant jibes at the Tories and Labour, and Lib Dems just getting the brunt of it. Shame the dude slept with a prostitute, but it was a good show that week if I recall correctly.

So, yeah, stopped watching and put on Star Trek.
