I read the Dale Street Blues' version of "The Thick Of It" but I'm afraid if this ever made it television, it would be the dullest episode ever. Minister visits Liverpool, press officer tells local paper about said visit, reporter speaks to minister, writes up story, press release arrives a bit late... Not exactly comedy gold, is it?
