Watched the first two episodes last night and thought it was a hoot; I'll be interested to see what complaints it gets though. I mean, calling Kate a gypsy and inferring Pippa's sh@gging Harry is sailing pretty close to the wind even in this less-than-deferential age...!
Did House of Fools fans recognise the actress playing Eugenie? It took me a while and I had to look her up. Recognised Morgana Robinson as Pippa obviously.
I like the fact that in the main they haven't cast slavishly close lookalikes, it seems to make the cartooney aspect of it work better. In that respect it reminds me a bit of Sue Townsend's play The Queen and I which I saw 20-odd years ago. Certainly far funnier than anything that dreadful Newzoids managed last year
The chap playing Wills (who I also didn't recognise at first from W1A) puts me in mind of Matt Smith
