The fairly recent 2d Tv was made by the spitting image gang. Pretty much the same as spitting image but cartoons instead.
Dead ringers is also quite satirical. IMHO satire has had it's day as televisual slapstick comedy anyway.
BGG What makes you say HIGNFY is scripted?The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

On a rather different but vaguely similar tack, I went to see Never Mind the Buzzcocks being filmed a couple of weeks ago and all the stuff to camera from the presenter is all scripted and the rest is sort of ad-libbed but more than likely prepped for. I would imagine the same goes for HIGNFY.Comment

However, there is now a wealth of new material rolling past, and they'd better hurry up while it is fresh in the public's minds. Imagine what they could have done with the Iraq decision, money for peerages, and EU directives.Comment
