You’ll be familiar now with the great Michael Spicer and his ‘room next door’ sketches.
You might also have seen some of culture secretary Nadine Dorries’s string of car crash TV interviews, of which this weekend’s effort on BBC Breakfast was surely the grisliest.
Charlie Stayt: Have you spoken to the Prime Minister in the last 24-hours?
Nadine Dorries – Why are you asking me that question
Charlie Stayt: I’d like to know
Nadine Dorries: we’ve communicated
Charlie Stayt: I’m really confused, is that a difficult question?#BBCBreakfast pic.twitter.com/InMqfHytjS

Now Michael has turned his ‘room next door’ gaze on it and it’s just fabulous.

And here are just a few of the many things people were saying about it today.
This is pure genius. @MrMichaelSpicer narrating what some might think, the impossible, an interview with Nadine Dorries.
I swear Nadine uses “The Prime Minister and I have communicated” as an equivalent to pleading the 5th in US court. Priceless.

“You hopeless moth” – that’s the line that finally cracked me.
