I thought it was pretty good - especially the Princes trying to be 'bloody normal blokes'. Here is some of it: |

I thought it was terrible. The most obvious, shite, uninspired humour, appealing the the lowest common denominator. |

To be honest, Grim...'s quite high common denominator. I didn't like it either, though. |

Avoided it like the plague after seeing the adverts for it. |

It seems ITV keep trying to chase the "new Spitting Image" thing every few years. |

Yeah, the adverts didn't fill me with any kind of desire to watch it at all. |

I liked the bit about the media industry being doomed, but that was about it. Oh I want a crisp tree and a chocolate tree, but not salt and vineger. |

There was talk of a Spitting Image comeback a few years ago, but ITV put paid to it by making Ant and Dec puppets for a clip show, without the permission of Spitting Image, which annoyed Roger Law. Spitting Image (or a show like it) would be good if they were more "broadsheet" (political, like Spitting Image in its prime) and less "tabloid" (celeb-obsessed like 2DTV, Headcases etc) |

Basically they are left with the blandest of the bland. |
