The ageing-biggotted-giant-Y-front-wearing-racist-non-comic Bernard Manning is to start work as a John Prescott look-a-like.  Manning is to impersonate the Deputy Prime Minister in a new ITV comedy by Dead Ringers star Jon Culshaw.

The show, called "The Impressionable Jon Culshaw" is also to feature Eddie Large, who (rather surprisingly) is to play Labour MP Clare Short.
