London, Oct 14 (ANI): Former Prime Ministers of Britain, Tony Blair and Margaret Thatcher have been portrayed as having an affair in a new comedy show.
The Baroness and the former leader of the Labour party are shown sharing a pillow talk and a post-coital cigarette in Channel 4's 'The Hunt For Tony Blair'.
The controversial comedy created by the Comic Strip team, has Jennifer Saunders playing Lady Thatcher, dripping with jewels, while comic actor Stephen Mangan plays Blair, covered in lipstick marks.
Saunders is reprising her role as the former Tory leader after a previous Comic Strip outing in 'Red Nose Of Courage' in 1992, and writer/director Peter Richardson has delved into vintage Hollywood glamour to perfect the role.
"I've been watching YouTube videos of her [Thatcher] but I find it very difficult to do real dialogue as it's such a particular sort of voice. It's very strange because it's very soft, then very strident," the Scotsman quoted Saunders as saying. (ANI)
