Ballot Monkeys

A comedy series built around the 2015 British election campaign. The programme follows the campaign buses and their electioneering staff as they cope with events, polls and media responses.

Episode 1

Episode #1.1

Political battle buses go on the offensive for the 2015 British election with Labour's Jack Pardew advising canvassers to avoid mention of his leader Ed Miliband as the kiss of death and Lib Dem Kevin Sturridge, whilst lamenting the demise of the old Liberal party, still comparing himself to a 100-1 outsider Derby winner. Conservative Martin Frost is supremely confident, bringing former Prime Minister John Major to help the cause whereas UKIP's Kate Standen seems confused as to policy and concerned as to whether her coach driver is an illegal immigrant. All are looking to social media to gauge their popularity and the fact that they are losing out to the badger that looks like Beyoncé is not a good omen.
