Reviews

Amazon.co.uk

All eight shows from the smash-hit first series, featuring star turns from all your favourite (and least favourite!) celebrities and politicians, including Posh & Becks, Wills & Harry, Katie Price & Peter Andre, Amy Winehouse, Piers Morgan, Bono, Madonna, Fabio Capello, Lampard & Gerrard, Gordon Brown, David Cameron and Sir Trevor McDonald.

Voiced by some of the country’s top comedy stars (Rory Bremner, Omid Djalili, Jon Culshaw, Katy Brand, Lewis Macleod and Kayvan ‘Fonejacker’ Novak), written by some of the finest comedy talent (credits include Spitting Image, Little Britain, Black Books, Have I Got News For You) and featuring the most cutting-edge animation seen on TV.

Bonus Featurette: A Headcases History – The Making Of The Show.



Synopsis
The satirical puppetry of SPITTING IMAGE gets a 21st century Pixar-style makeover in the hit ITV series HEADCASES. Using cutting edge 3D animation, the show takes a sardonic swipe at the topical issues, celebrities and politicians of the day. With a mixed bag of targets ranging from Gordon Brown, David Cameron, George Bush, the Queen, Princes William and Harry, Robert Mugabe, Nicolas Sarkozy and Vladimir Putin, to the Beckhams, Madonna, Brangelina, Amy Winehouse, Mohamed Al-Fayed, Russell Brand, Piers Morgan and many many more... including the Dames, Judi Dench and Helen Mirren as you've never seen them before!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent topical show!, 14 Jul 2008
By I. Robinson (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It's worth it for Madonna's questionable crotch alone, but this series was truly the hero of mainstream comedy this year. Faves included President Armadinijad (Don't be racist... give us nuclear) Jeremy Clarkson and poor old Gordon Brown. Brilliant!

1.0 out of 5 stars Quite literally the least funny thing ever created., 25 Jul 2008
By G. Smith (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Truly awful. The impersonations are shocking and some of them could not sound less like the person intended if they tried. Even ignoring this, 90% of the sketches are not remotely funny, and a fair few are actually hugely irritating in their attempts to be funny. The only good point is that SOME of the animation is quite nice, but not much, and there will inevitably be the odd brief, quiet chuckle. Few and far between though. Headcases is an approprite title, because that is what you would need to be one of to pay money for this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Headcases, 29 Jan 2009
Brilliant. Headcases has filled a gap left by the demise of Spitting Image and made an excellent job of it. The satire is spot on and the cariacatures hilarious. One for the collection.

2.0 out of 5 stars Occasionally inspiring, mostly just dull.
For years now I've been waiting for a new satire show to rival the much-missed Spitting Image which, in its day, made mincemeat of the political and media world. Read more

This is possibly the unfunniest 'comedy' I have ever come across. Far from being sharp and satirical as the description suggests, this is a run through of the same poor jokes from... Read more
