Newscast - Spitting Image
New local restrictions announced today for Liverpool, Hartlepool and Middlesbrough now place a quarter of the UK under some form of ‘local lockdown’. Laura and Chris speak to Andy Preston, the independent Mayor of Middlesbrough, on why he thinks the government is making a mistake.
And, with Spitting Image returning to our screens this weekend, Matt Forde tells us what it was like to voice Donald Trump and Boris Johnson-- in puppet form.
