The Thick of It: 20 Years On, with Armando Iannucci
Malcolm Tucker. Pet ASBOs. A law requiring everyone in Britain to carry around a plastic bag.
It’s been twenty years since Armando Iannucci‘s The Thick of It first brought the chaos and drama of the fictitious ‘Department of Social Affairs and Citizenship’ into our lives. First aired on the BBC in 2005, the show satirised the Blair government’s spin-heavy politics, with Peter Capaldi’s foul-mouthed character Malcolm Tucker quickly becoming one of Britain’s most unforgettable TV villains.
Join Iannucci – and special guests to be announced – live at Alexandra Palace Theatre and ask your questions in the audience Q&A.
Relive some of the funniest moments from the show, reveal behind-the-scenes stories and answer questions on whether a show like The Thick of It could ever work in today’s polarised political climate and social media news cycle.
