Dead Ringers is satire's great saviour - our politicians should be worried

The comedy sketch show is back, in rip-roaring form, just when the public needs it most.

Dead Ringers Live review

Don't expect the shock of the new from the BBC Radio 4 stalwart, but audience suggestions and music really lift the second half.

Dead Ringers Live, London Wonderground review

The running gags may be old but the newer material delivered too.

Dead Ringers Live, review

A little dated, but they still make a strong impression.

Review: Dead Ringers Live - London Wonderground

The show may start hesitantly, but that soon fades, and by the time Dead Ringers has filled its hour, comes a reminder of why, 21 years after the series' first creation, it remains a source of great comedy.

First live shows together for Dead Ringers team

Radio show Dead Ringers is coming to the Barbican Theatre in London for a limited run of five shows.

Radio Times review

The team returns for a festive edition of the classic impressions show, this time putting a yuletide spin on some very unseasonal programmes. Jon Culshaw, Jan Ravens, Duncan Wisbey and company send up a cosy, snow-sprinkled special of Crimewatch, while also taking a look at some snowman-shaped abnormalities in Embarrassing Bodies. This Christmas, no one will be spared.

Radio Times review

Impressionist Lewis Macleod, the latest recruit to Dead Ringers, now gets his own show. Duncan Wisbey and Julian Dutton have contrived some fairly wacky situations to exploit their mate's best voices.

Morgan Freeman plays Fletcher in Porridge; Gregg Wallace sings a filthy love song to Mary Berry (Kate O'Sullivan); and a running gag has Benedict Cumberbatch turning up inopportunely to spout purple prose in the manner of Sherlock Holmes.

The show claims that Macleod has been hired to impersonate movie stars who refuse to re-record their inaudible lines. We want more details.
