Spitting Image - 1987 Election Special Part 7

I was going to do a blog post asking how you convert VHS video to Youtube format, as I have the Spitting Image Election Special 1987 on tape. But then I found it was already there. This is the last 5 min segment, with the rather amusing "Tomorrow Belongs to Me" cover. I especially like (and liked) the Ted Heath character, and the bit where Roy turns to Neil and asks whether he still thinks he can control them. The 1987 Spitting Image special was probably at the height of the show's popularity and skill, and it was run semi-live, as in at the start (part 1) Alistair Burnett actually gives the result of the ITV Exit Poll.
