UK TV Alert: Animated Princes in Headcases
It may have been given a digital makeover. But ITV’s new version of Spitting Image will still mercilessly poke fun at today’s public figures.
And despite the absence of any latex this time around, politicians are once again set to dread Sunday nights.
Instead of being portrayed as puppets the likes of Posh & Becks, 007 Daniel Craig, Gordon Brown, Amy Winehouse, Pete Doherty and the princes William and Harry will all be captured by CGI-animation.
Prince William - He might be second in line to the British throne - but Wills just wants to be a normal bloke. Sadly, it’s not that simple when you’re dating Kate Middleton…
Prince Harry - With his shock of ginger hair, Prince Harry’s never quite managed to fit into the royal mould, unlike his big brother. Still, with his love for fags, booze and girls - he’s the perfect Brit.
Headcases airs on ITV1 on Sunday April 6 at 10pm.

Yes, but we will just have to conform ourselves in the Posh and Becks, Wills and Harry, plus other mentioned including politicians until they make a next one.

Looks like William has big lips on his animated Character and Harry has a big nose for his Character. I would love to see it if this animated Spitting image was shown on BBC America. They both look funny looking as animated characters in this picture.

dont compare the two of them, they have their own prespectives and they also have different aspects in life

Shrug its just an animated comic. I’m sure if both boys watch it, the’ll just laugh over it - don’t think its going to be such a ‘bad poking joke’ on them.

This should be fun. I like this kind of programme. Usually quite funny.

Bluefire is right I shouldn’t compare the two Princes it seems unpleasant I just want to say sorry about that.

is william’s head huge ,or what?

That adverts for the show are quit amusing with these two. In one William wants a normal pizza that people in the council estate would have. He then orders a caviar one and Harry orders a pheasant one. I get the feeling the program is going to portray the boys as being quite stupid. Hopefully it’s all a bit of fun though.

These animations do look odd. Harry looks evil and William just looks plain weird. What’s with the big lips and head? He could give Mick Jagger a run for his money with lips like that? At least if anyone wanted to prove Wills has a big head this’ll certainly do.
