this film both has jimmy carr walking into a photo booth and turning into diane abbott AND the whole plot centres around the fact that mickey rourke got bullied by tony blair (played by robbie coltrane) while at private school.

Haven’t watched this since I was about 10. Some serious hype moments and aura but nowhere near as good as it was when I was a wee guy x
