Description
From the brilliant satirical mind of Armando Iannucci comes the political tour de force that is The Thick of It. Winning multiple BAFTAs during its 4 seasons, the series is well known for combining sharp, ribald humour with trenchant political satire.
Following the farcical and byzantine DoSAC (Department of Social Affairs and Citizenship) the series traces a procession of shambolic ministers as they bumble their way through government. Featuring stand-out, eye gouging performances from Peter Capaldi (Doctor Who) as Malcolm Tucker, the obscene Director of Communications. It also stars Chris Addison (Mock the Week) as Ollie, a perpetually beleaguered advisor.
This Complete Collection comes in a collectible replica 'Despatch box', and contains all 4series of this must-watch show.

Brilliant!
I'm probably missing half the jokes and references, but even so, this has been a great source of amusement. Admittedly, as someone who doesn't swear much herself, I was a little wary of that aspect of the show, since "strong language" is one of the descriptors that crops up consistently everywhere, but I was happy to realise it didn't bother me in this context. The scripts and acting in any case are top-notch, from everyone concerned. I also have to say I love the box the DVDs come in - the little red suitcase may be a little flimsy (it's cardboard and not particularly sturdy one at that) but it's holding up well so far and looks nicer on the shelf than most standard cardboard slipcases. The handle is a nice touch!
Still crazy after all these years
Wouldn't you think that the current government would have watched this as a cautionary tale instead of a how to do it manual! Timeless...and priceless
Nice little box
This is a great Show. One of the best I've seen in years. The DVD box comes in a nice tiny suitcase. Pretty cool I must dsay.
