Dead Ringers Series 13 & 14: Seven Episodes of the BBC Radio 4 Comedy Series

Beschreibung

Seven sparkling episodes from the award-winning BBC Radio 4 impressions show -including the General Election 2015 edition The topical impressions show returns with two more series, featuring the Boxing Day 2014 episode, a 'Review of 2014' edition and five further episodes from 2015: including the astonishingly bang-up-to-date General Election edition written within hours of the final result and broadcast the morning after. In these seven episodes, the Dead Ringers team give Crimewatch and Embarrassing Bodies some extra festive cheer; take a sneak peek at the things that will definitely happen in 2015 (how will the UKIP/Labour coalition fare?) and focus on the build-up to one of the most important votes for decades - will Austria win again, or does Britain's Electro Velvet stand a chance? Plus, Mel and Sue give their double entendres a good old squeeze in The Great British Innuendo; Nick Clegg talks exclusively to ITV News about being held hostage by the government for five years; and Ed Miliband signs off with the song 'Every Time We Lost a Seat'. Satire meets silliness in the flagship comedy for hard working families up and down the country, starring accomplished impressionists Jon Culshaw, Jan Ravens, Duncan Wisbey, Lewis MacLeod and Debra Stevenson.
