Pilots and Series 1 to 18, 1983 - 1996
Scope and Contents
Scripts for all regular episodes of the 18 series of Spitting Image, along with the script for the original, unaired 1983 pilot episode; and scripts for an American pilot that was never made. There are various forms of scripts present, including: rehearsal, camera, production, and post-production. These different scripts represent various stages or aspects of an episode's production. However, post-production scripts are the most prevalent in this section, and the other forms of scripts only appear in the files for the first five series, and to a far lesser degree.
Accompanying some of the scripts are other documentation, such as episode running orders, writers' record sheets and related paperwork, and musicians' payment authority documents.
