5/8. Impressionists. Rory Bremner. Stanley Baxter and Avid Bo Selecta ! Merrion contribute to a look at the one-time poor relations of comedy.

Whether it was the satires of Harold Macmillan by Peter Cook and John Bird , the more benign interpretations of Mike Yarwood , the characters of Dick Emery , or the sharp satirical wit of Spitting
Image, impressionists proved the power of mimicry.
Featuring Jon Culshaw , Ronni Ancona ,
