Scope and Contents
Two boxes containing 20 sub-files with various forms of scripts and accompanying material relating to all 11 episodes of series 2 Spitting Image, which originally aired on British television between 6 January and 24 March 1985.

There are also scripts for 'topicals' [also known as 'quickies'], which were short vignettes inserted into a show in the final day of filming; many of these sketches were submitted by members of the public and freelance professional writers.
The second box holds sub-files with a variety of contents, including: writers' details; puppeteers' and voice actors' details; index of sketches for each episode; script rewrites; and 'banking' documents.
