Thirty Greatest Political Comedies

Sat 8 Sept 2007 9pm
The results of an exclusive poll of MPs to uncover what Parliament thinks have been the 30 greatest political comedies on TV.

Presented by Michael Howard and Charles Kennedy, and featuring interviews with leading politicians and journalists such as Iain Duncan Smith, Lembit Opik, Roy Hattersley, George Galloway, Edwina Currie, Ann Widdecombe and Jonathan Dimbleby, the programme considers what politicians really think when their lives and work are pulled apart by the nation's comics and satirists.

Plus we discover the motivations of the TV satirists, how they pick their targets, aim their fire, and deal with the political fallout.
