The downfall of The Rt. Hon. Nicola Murray, leader of the opposition.
About the only thing that talked me off my emotional ledge was Rebecca Front tweeting that this was not the last of Nicola.
#notnadia and I once had a conversation about starting some kind of safehouse for fictional ladies #nicola gets the penthouse suite #and the poolboy #and all the wine in the tri-state area
1. This was a real conversation.
2. Donna Noble has been taking evening bartending classes and now hosts a bi-weekly happy hour in the kitchen. Ruth Evershed gets the library?

Parliamentary journalists were treated to a special showing of Armando Iannucci’s new TV series Veep, set in the office of a fictional US Vice-President. Talking afterwards, Iannucci, pictured below, said shooting was complete on what is likely to be the final series of The Thick Of It, in which the hard-swearing spin doctor Malcolm Tucker and his politician, Nicola Murray, are in opposition, and Peter Mannion – one of the less obnoxious characters in the series – is in government. It is a Coalition government, involving a third party known as The Inbetweeners.
There is also a spin doctor who may or may not resemble Andy Coulson.

This show is actually going to fucking kill me, I swear to God.

I swear to god, every other phone conversation I have with my dad, he asks me when The Thick of It is coming back. This has probably been going on for a year. I always say “I don’t know! I don’t even know if it’s ever coming back! Who can say? British television is coy like that!”
In short, I have a phone call to make.

genre swap → The Thick of It as a feel-good comedy about the POWER OF FRIENDSHIP
Malcolm Tucker had always been a loner - until he started working with the motley crew at DoSaC! Join Malcolm and his mates as they prevent the media from exploiting people’s natural tittishness, deal with The Opposition’s wacky shenanigans, and battle other public relations snafus… together.
