Scope and Contents

A file containing two items relating to the Best Ever Spitting Image tribute programme, which was aired on the British television channel, ITV 1, on 25 June 2006. The first item is a copy of a letter sent to Granada Media Group Limited by the legal firm, Davenport Lyon, working on behalf of Roger Law and Peter Fluck. The contents of this letter revolves around a conflict between Law and Fluck with the producers of the programme, regarding the creation of puppets for the show's presenters, Declan Donnelly and Anthony McPartlin. Law and Fluck do not want the production of these puppets attributed to them, and they want that made clear within the credits of the show. Other conditions are stipulated in the letter, regarding these puppets.

The second item is a printout of an email sent to Law from the programme's producer and director, Stuart Ramsay. Ramsay confirms the air date for the show, and thanks Law for his contribution to the programme. The matter concerning the presenters' puppets is also mentioned.
