Excellent new series, with a splendid cast.
And a full-on shot of the shop front of leading Cheesemongers, Paxton & Whitfield in Jermyn Street.
As Winston Churchill said, 'A gentleman buys his hats at Locks, his shoes at Lobbs, his shirts at Harvie and Hudson, his suits at Huntsman and his cheese at Paxton & Whitfield.'

I saw the title and ignored it.
I sort of dismissed it assuming it was some hippy types who lived off flattened hedgehogs.
So it's not that then. |  |

It's a political thriller, with the excellent Hugh Laurie, the splendid Helen McCory and the superlative Patricia Hodge. | |

Machiavellian Maggie Thatcher lookalike PM teaches Rees-Mogg lookalike (tho he's from other side of the tracks in this) + his Dominic look-alike advisor (tho he's called Duncan) how political cut-throatery works IRL.
Meanwhile reptilian male editor of tabloid gets a lesson in how sexism doesn't always work from a sharp lawyer & ambitious young journo keen to pursue the ReesMugg figure till his pips squeak.
Edit: I refer anyone seeking "balance" re the impersonation of political figures to BBC4, where a repeat of the superb series called 'Collateral' (also written by the brilliant David Hare) carried on straight after 'Roadkill' had finished. It features a leader of the opposition who just happens to look remarkably like Jeremy Corbyn. **NO SPOILERS PLS** - concludes in about 21.5 hours with parts 3 & 4. [Post edited 19 Oct 2020 0:28]

Yes. That was in fact the only time Churchill ever spoke in his entire life. | |

In fact the report about Patricia Hodge and Factual 'splashing about in the surf' caused Churchill to leave an underground bunker and assume a covert position amongst the dunes as directed by the elite Commando (that's what you call it when you go undercrackerless, isn't it?) unit cunningly disguised as Butlin's Redcoats. An actual Redcoat infiltrated the unit and later became screenwriter Daniel Taradash and used the memory of these events to create the famous 'surf' scene between Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr in 'From Here To Eternity'... |  |
