Author Description

Roger Law, the evil genius behind the mocking, caricature puppets of Spitting Image—which lampooned Margaret Thatcher, ridiculed the royal family and gave birth to "The Chicken Song"—unburdens his tormented soul and tells the awful truth of how it all came about. The award-winning series ran for 8 years, with Law masterminding the corruption and undermining of an entire generation's respect for authority and institutions. Still Spitting at Sixty is Roger Law's account of his life so far, up to and including his retirement in Australia, filled with all the lunacy and flare that one would expect from the co-producer and creator of Spitting Image.
