Product Description

The Thick of It is one of the funniest and most biting TV comedies around today – a modern-day Yes, Minister for New Labour. A satire on the inner workings of modern politics, it’s brim-full of spin-doctoring, back-stabbing, and policy-making on the hoof. And, according to insiders, it’s frighteningly close to the truth.

This exclusive collection of razor-sharp scripts and extras is a treat for fans of this award-winning show.

Review

'The funniest thing on telly by a mile'

'Inspired, seemingly effortless and far too close for comfort'

'One of the best things he's ever done, if not the best thing'

'Not merely a compilation of the TV series. It is a manual of how modern politics works'
