"keep trusting the bankers" lol
5 years ago, getting more relevant and accurate with every day that passes.
I can see Blair having a rant at Corbyn in this style...
9 years ago now...... and even more relevant. FREE JULIAN ASSANGE NOW!!!!!
best satire ever
I love the references to 'The 39 Steps'
Absolutely BRILLIANT!!!! Why didn't we get this show in Oz??? The best story (and send-up) that I've ever seen for showing how bad these bastards were (and the new breed still are).
Peter Richardson is brilliant. This is one of his best ever. I've watched it at least 5 times as well as most of Pete's film's and I love the fact that he's made so many people famous, Rik Mayal, Ade Edmonson, Jennifer Saunders, Robbie Coletrain.....and so many more. I LOVE THIS SILLY SHIT!
"I am big, it's the office that got small..."
I wonder why nobody in the U.S. has thought to make a film like this about Bill Clinton, Blair's prototype.
One of the best bits of entertainment I have watched for many years, a great way to spin the truth.
This is suberbly done-- "Oh shit, I killed again! Oh well, shit happens.," Need to create a high school study around these events and characters, comedy genius makes history palatable
Excellent on all counts
this is brilliant, these people knew how to put a skit together, and it still holds true today. it takes a great director to dial up a scene, whether it be campy, or it be humor's or it be turn of the century five stars for historical indurance
How in hell did I miss this???? Its brilliant!
They didn't want you to see it, it was advertised at the time but failed to be shown
Smith, Cook, Mowlam, Tony Banks, Bob Crowe, Dr David Kelly...
I love this film ! Absolutely brilliant !
Soundtrack helps to make this a work of genius (as does script, acting, camerawork etc etc)...

Very well executed .
Amazing
This is an excellent movie
Wow - never thought they could top The Strike but this might just have squeaked it. Genius.
Genius.
Not a frame wasted.
Scarily revelant today.
Excellent~~~
Lovely being able to watch this all the way through. Shame I needed ZenMate though because it's blocked in the UK by Channel 4.
Yep big brother says no
Lol the 50's mimicing song at 12:20
Should be released on streaming services.
Shot in the arse.. perfect
Given our current President, Peter Richardson sounds more like Donald Trump than George Bush; In fact, I originally thought Peter was doing Dick Cheney.
Not so much satire as a hoped-for real-life situation.
Laugh out loud stuff.
Not one of their best.
