Spitting Image is a comedy puppet show from the UK satirising world politics. As advertised, this DVD box set contains seasons 1 to 7. This is the original season of Spitting Image, so you will find that a lot of the political humour is lost unless you lived during the 80s and 90s, but even though I was not alive for this era, the jokes are often obvious enough that you can figure out the political context behind them, and even if you can't, they're often still entertaining. This is a region 2 DVD, so my Australian DVD players will not play it, however, it is very easy to bypass the region locking using something like VLC. Although sometimes a bit dated, Spitting Image is still an incredibly entertaining and downright hilarious show. My only complaint about the product is that the case's space economics is awful. Rather than containing just one or even 2 DVDs per page, the middle plastic pages contain 3 DVDs, with one stacked on top of the other. This is not ideal, and it would have been far better if there were 2 DVDs per page and an extra page included. The DVDs are also incredibly difficult to remove from the case, as the case designers opted for an absolutely awful 6 prong hub, which makes it tedious to get out the disks without bending them, and it's worse for the DVDs stacked on top of each other. Overall, I am very satisfied with this product, it has consistently entertained me, and it says a lot that the worst part of this DVD set is that the case is awful.Read full review
