Put the items in your preferred order.
A
The Thick of It
Armando Iannucci's brutally funny satire about the chaos inside Whitehall. Still the gold standard for political comedy, and probably uncomfortably accurate.
B
Yes Minister
Jim Hacker versus Sir Humphrey in a battle of wits that somehow still feels current. Reportedly Margaret Thatcher's favourite, which says it all.
C
House of Cards (original)
Ian Richardson's chilling Tory chief whip plotting his way to the top. 'You might very well think that; I couldn't possibly comment' never gets old.
D
Have I Got News For You
Three decades of Hislop, Merton and a rotating cast mocking the week's political nonsense. A Friday night ritual for many households.
E
Spitting Image
The iconic puppet show that skewered politicians without mercy in the 80s and came roaring back in 2020. Nobody escapes the rubber treatment.
