Nearly 20 years after iconic TV satire "Spitting Image" ended, a new puppet show hit the airwaves in Britain this week poking fun at politicians at the height of the election campaign. "Newzoids", a weekly half-hour sketch show on the ITV channel, ridicules everyone from the royal family to tennis star Andy Murray but the first episode centred on politics. In a joke about his upper-class background, Prime Minister David Cameron was shown being carried on a sedan chair to a drive-thru burger joint and ordering champagne. Opposition Labour leader Ed Miliband, hoping to replace Cameron after the May 7 election, was depicted starring in a reality TV show called "I'm A Catastrophe, Get Me Out Of Here".
