With the world getting smaller and more turbulent, the time couldn’t be more appropriate for an iconic British satirical take on global events. Produced by Avalon (Taskmaster, The Russell Howard Hour, Catastrophe, Breeders, Last Week Tonight With John Oliver) throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, over 100 puppets have already been developed by socially distanced teams of artists ready for launch, including: Adele, Angela Merkel, Baby Yoda, Barack Obama, Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, Boris Johnson, Boris Baby, The Johnson Dog, Brad Pitt, Camilla Duchess of Cornwall, Chrissy Teigen, Covid-19, Cristiano Ronaldo, Dominic Cummings, Dominic Raab, Donald Trump, Dwayne Johnson, Ed Sheeran, Elon Musk, Elton John, Emmanuel Macron, Greta Thunberg, Grimes, Gwyneth Paltrow, Harry Styles, Idris Elba, Ivanka Trump, Jacinda Ardern, James Corden, Jeff Bezos, Joe Biden, Jürgen Klopp, Kanye West, Keir Starmer, Kim Kardashian, Lewis Hamilton, Mark Zuckerberg, Matt Hancock, Meghan Duchess of Sussex, Melania Trump, Michael Gove, Michelle Obama, Narendra Modi, Oprah Winfrey, Piers Morgan, The Pope, Prince Andrew, Prince Charles, Prince Harry, Prince William, Priti Patel, The Queen, Richard Branson, Rishi Sunak, RuPaul, Taylor Swift, Tiger Woods, Tyson Fury, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping, all falling under the show’s legendary gaze.
A next generation of satirical writers and voice artists are working with established talent to drive a new wave of ‘public service satire’.

Cohen (The Simpsons), Gemma Arrowsmith (The Tracey Ullman Show), Jason Hazeley & Nico Tatarowicz (Charlie Brooker’s Screenwipe/Murder in Successville), Karl Minns (Russell Howard’s Good News), Keisha Zollar (Astronomy Club), Laura Major (Famalam), Matt Forde, Patric Verrone (The Simpsons), Phil Wang, Richard Herring, Sophie Duker (Frankie Boyle’s New World Order) and Travis Jay (Dave Chapelle and Friends) with many more joining the growing team.

Wow! We've warped back to the '80's satire puppets. Brings back memories.
Right? Genesis would be proud, someone tweet phil collins
the cameras and fabrics did get more vibrant , it still works though.
was that ronnie regans pupit that they used as the scientist?
You forgot Crank Yankers on Comedy Central in the 2ks
@@fish97826 I was thinking just the same
*"Don't forget the fucking bicycle pump!"* Absolutely class 😂🤣
When they had that exchange: " *sshole", "pedo"! I had to play it back. Lmao.
I told you to bring a bicycle pump....
It's been 2 weeks since I watched this, and I STILL have "Grimes... Grimes on Mars... Red Plaaaaanet!" stuck in my head.
Why would that be what's in your head rather than the actual lyrics: "Mars. Grimes on Mars. Red planet!"
@@goodisnipr Still better than having "Oblivion" in your head
I like how Branson always finds an entirely different solution or piggyback on other two 😂
Thats Branson’s job
Yea, there's no way Elon is that witty and charismatic in real life.
No, but really nailed it with his pudgy and rubber face.
Your absolutely right, uhhhhhhhh.............. he is the smartest in the room because when you uhhhhhhhhhh.................. Are the best in manufacturing things just open up, by 2024 we will have uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh........................... Tesla powered rollercoasters in mars.
Crazy how realistic they look and act
You mean it's not real
40 years of experince do the thing.
@@danieladamczyk4024 imagine wasting 40 years of your life
@@yeahman147 For doing things you love?
Beside, EVERYTHING we do is a waste of time.
@@danieladamczyk4024 I love football but I'm not wasting 40years on it. 40 years bro that's half of life, I get bored easy
Please bring back Spitting Image with the current bunch of 'politicians'. Plenty of absolutely gold material. And kudos to see Bazos being shipped to Mars in his own box.
A once funny show that when it was last relaunched was as biased as expected. Pass.
Just think in the future they will think ELIAR MUSK and DONALD TRUMP where sitcom comedy characters!
I think the clown car comedy of the Tories is way past mockery...
They can't keep up with the reality
The problem is that spitting image was a parody. Its difficult to parody the current political critters. They do an amazing job themselves.
no matter how far you think youve come. Splitting Image is there to always bring you back down to earth.
Terrible pun
Mid pun.
Controversial pun
* Mars ;)
Or in the case of Elon Muck, ‘No matter how far you’ve sunk.’
10:13 Elons face killed me 😂😂😅
The Richard Branson pupppet got me 😂😂😂
He's so positive 🤣
With his inflatables
"don't forget the fucking bicycle pump"
Cracks me up the way they designed Richard Branson 😂😂😂
WTF happened to the Rutan shuttlecock. It *was* so far ahead of it's time.
The funny thing is,the puppets do resemble the real people they are based on.
Genius ☺️
@@doctorpanigrahi9975 they are more like them than they are. Genius. ☺️
Bubble buddy ☺️
We need this as a series, yes pls
It's very entertaining 😂
It is a series
It's just like watching the family guy. My brain switched off and am left without words by the end. So well done.
Bring this show back, i’m 15 and love it
if only mars had a door . we could weld it shut .
Now we know that there is no INTELLIGENT life on Mars!
1:52 future Elon actually looks like his mum! 😂😂
I love the fact that they used real puppets for the show!
I love Grimes’ big red Autotune button haha. So true it hurts.
Bronson's overbite is epic!! 🤣🤣
This is the world we live in, and these are the hands we're given
And God love us 😪
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in
These hands can build guillotines to make the world a better place.
☺️
The Grimes one had me dying laughing.
The Sun's pissed, I laughed so much.
this feels like the plot to a really bad Jules Verne novel and I love it
Your comment deserves more than a mere 11 likes.
That Grimes song is too accurate! :D
This is the closest thing I've seen in a long time to the way they used to create shows in the past, beautiful satiric art
Spitting Image is just hilarious. Loved the originals with Margaret Thatcher, HM The Queen and many other sports stars & government figures.
A masterpiece. And they look so real
I feel the the writers wants to do a short sketch with musk and they kept coming up with ideas and thought “fuck it! we’re doing a proper narrative”
"Thank you my dear. I'm no longer afraid of death."
Elon’s life is suspiciously like a Disney channel sitcom
"How soon will it do whatever it does" 🤣classic
To me, the best comedy shows are the ones that are nothing but accurate depictions of reality as it is, like South Park, Monty Python and, of course, Spitting Image.
By the way, I cried in laughter when Grimes recorded her song idea and then went on to press the "autotune" button hahaha
... what came bevor FSD AI ?
contemporary music-industries FSC NI ...
full self composing , No I's.
Ingenuinty
Inspiration
Integrity
...
at all .
😂👍🏽😂
This is like old top gear just with billionaires. Branson would be James May Elon Musk would be Clarkson And Bezos would be Hammond 😂😂
It's just not funny anymore is it? SI was amazing in the 90s....not really any good now though
@@justmehereUK eh I actually prefer the new one. But they’re both pretty great
No
Dope lol
@@justmehereUK I like them just as much. The difference being there's FA decent satire around these days that isn't some politically motivated group or something trying to make a useless point. However Spitting Image know they're all assholes :)
Expecting any of those three to lead us to the future is like expecting professional orchestral compositions to come from poultry.
The creases on Branson's face tho!! 🤣
Very accurate because when you vote for Bill Johnson in this upcoming West Virginia election, you can count on his expertise to run the government with a future-driven view
"Thank you, my dear, I am no longer afraid of death!" 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
So many good moments in this lmao
Lmao anyone notice the sun got pissed off when it heard that stupid song?
Yes everyone did
Mars, Grimes on Mars, reTUUURNING
STOP .... you had me at 5:30 ..... lets do it
Reminds me the Golgfrinians from the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy and how they got rid of the most useless third of their society.
LMAO...MARVELOUS sketch! Grimes' hilariously awful ditty is now etched in my mind!
You have this really pretty French name, and then you go: No, I wanna' sound like Dirt.
Wow, I had no idea this show was still going on! We had it in Spain a lot of years ago, then some day it was no more.
The special effects are amazing. This must have cost a fortune.
£10,000 a puppet.
@@georgeiii2998 Pardon my ignorance, but how are these.fantastic puppets made and animated? Do you know? I love them ❤️ since many years, esp.the Royal family. I read below:this vid "Tickets available"
Does it mean one can see them on Stage? How? Tx and greetings from Germany ♥️🇩🇪
@@danielahoti4109 And yes, you can see them on stage. The show goes on stage in Birmingham, UK in February 2023.
@@georgeiii2998 Thank you for your kind reply. Unfortunately doesn't explain how they are made.It is a mystery to me. 😏
@@danielahoti4109 They're made from latex and are mostly hand operated. th-cam.com/video/F4QLuxDVqaQ/w-d-xo.html
Grüße
the "another great job by me " was on point to his character 💀
"THANK YOU MY DEAR, I AM NO LONGER AFRAID OF DEATH"
Branson looks like he was born eating corn.
This is crazy stuff, I love it. I wish these clips were longer or a few bundled into a weekly series. I believe they're on Brit Box, but on my fixed income that's out of the question, oh well. I guess I'll have to enjoy what good 'ol U-Tube has to offer.
Me too
at 11:25 this was a lot of animation!
utorrent sold and the new version has infectious cancer, super aids and ads.
bit torrent itself is preferable at this point. tixati is nice. there are several viable options.
This is beyond epic. Musk's out of tune auto tune girlfriend had me cracked up
Gotta love those details.
5:37...probably would be the same reaction in real life!
This iteration of SI is as funny and hard-hitting as the first! 🤣
I wouldn’t be surprised😂
creator of those dolls is a real talent
"Don´t be a fool, you idiot! Earth has served it´s purpose. It created YOU." Brilliant 😂
So good to see Spitting Image back! And I'd love to see the back of those three plus a whole bunch of others!
I wish they all went to space and stayed there!
"I've got 5 billion in bitcoin, the password is 1"
Lmao
So funny, not even real, some bought hamburgers with bitcoins companys lost money
I gotta tell you, spitting image puppets alsways look so impressive.
I swear to God this has to be one of your best episodes yet I was so immersed halfway through I had to check myself and realize I was watching a video LOL I mean I got lost in this video and only Grimes music blinked me out of it LMAO lol you guys are awesome keep going
This would actually make an awesome video game.
Lmaooooo this wild, amazing who ever created this, this made my day
Spitting image has probably been the most, that our humankind could imagine out of mars.
Can't wait for the next season!!
The smartest thing Elon did in this video was that he picked up on Bezos subtle mentioning of his own Mars program.
Saving money on that test pilot seemed like a good idea
Holy shit, I didn't think puppet shows could be this good. I thought we peaked with Mr Meaty
Spitting Image is a legend of show
You've done it now, you've gone and pissed off the sun.
10:52 Classic line!! Solid gold T-Shirt material right there.
The scene with angry sun and grime's music was hilarious 😂
Spitting image from 80’s with Sylvester Stallone, and several characters from back in the day were so spot on funny
Remember the grey John Major puppet?
@@sean.butterworth I can’t remember that particular one. I remember Spok from Star Trek 😂
I've never heard musk speak so smoothly.
"That's what she said hehehehe" 🤣
"Thank you Dear, I no longer have fear of death" Fucking lol.
...That's actually pretty close to what Grimes's music sounds like.
Music? Is that what you call it?
“Wait, Mars? Like over by Jupiter?” 😂
The password is 1 😂 had me dead😂
Id would pay to see them all get stuck on mars
Carefull now dont go giving them any ideas. They'll take your money and still find a way to weasel out of it.
This was better than I thought it would be.
Him knawing on the corn literally killed me.
great job i hope you going do series 3 one day
I can’t get over how much Elon musks character looks like him I wonder what I would look like if they made me a character Lmao
This is amazing I appreciate the amount of work that went into all this wow!
Apropos of everything, I really need Spitting Image and Genesis to give us a new Land Of Confusion video with the current crop of monsters.
If Britbox really did pass on renewing Spitting Image, I think this would make a good next big project.
7:53
Ok, it's a whole masterpiece but the sun was the thing that made me laugh really hard. 😅
Impatiently waiting for the Liz Truss Spitfest.😀
You might want to rephrase that. The image that conjures up just made me throw up in my mouth a little!
You'll be waiting an eternity.
She's rather busy wondering whether to start wearing panties again 😂
"Ooh man... I'm getting space sick... Only one solution!..."
I thought Oprah was going to tell Bezos, "Even better! YOU GET A CAR!!!" (Sticks a small car in his sleeve)
This is so perfect ! It's so sad Britbox is not available for french customers
its called VPN
@@ct1762 no, the subscription declines non UK credit cards
Ah how it should be
@@StardustYT 'the subscription declines non UK credit cards'
So they're finally learning
Les Guignols
lol I didn't think Spitting Image was still a thing. I'm still stuck in a world where Ronnie Reagan puts his brain in a glass of water next to the bed when he goes to sleep... :P
5:45 😂 I’m no longer afraid of death ☠️
7:40 then he escapes that feeling 👺🖤😈💯🤡
This style of 80s puppets used in that old Genesis video Land of Confusion used to give me nightmares.. still gives me the creeps
Elon impersonation is epic. The most influential African American of our time.
Any nitpicks I may have are overwhelmed by just how good the puppets are.
they're puppets?
@@appa609 The actual individuals were too busy to take part in the making of this documentary. ;-)
@@Anti_Woke I thought it was stop motion
@@appa609 they did a documentary about making the puppets it was really interesting
Excellent. I was laughing out loud.
Imagine eating it right off the cob in zero G lol
Branson has been done dirty here, claiming everything outside the Southern and Northern Hemispheres. 🤣🤣
Absolute geniuses, loved it to bits
My goodness absolutely hillariousss
"Why is there so little air in this air?" 😆
I forgot the bicycle pump as well lol
It's supposed to be satire. It's closer to reality than we want to admit.
The comical script and plot lines to this video are awesome!!! Well done Spitting Image 👏
I agree ☝️
this is so good on so many levels!!!
