	2DTV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		2DTV is a satirical animated television show broadcast on ITV1 in the United Kingdom that follows closely in the footsteps of Spitting Image, but using animation rather than puppets.
		There's the reasonably sane Queen herself, mad Prince Philip, old fogie Prince Charles, ugly Camilla Parker Bowles, mean Princess Anne, naked Fergie, and wild sons Princes William and Harry.
		2DTV produced the controversial video for the 2002 George Michael single Shoot the Dog.

		Likened to a Spitting Image for the 21st Century, 2DTV uses caricatures and impressions of the famous, to satirise the week's news.
		2DTV was piloted in March 2001 on ITV1, and the success of this pilot led to an immediate series commission.
		2DTV was first broadcast in October and November 2001 on Sunday nights at 10.00pm, and consisted of 6 x 10 minute programmes.

	Reviews on 2DTV Look at tests, reports and read reviews: dooyoo.co.uk
		2DTV is a topical animated comedy show, with up-to-the-minute sketches on the week's news,...
		When the pilot show of 2DTV was aired it included the voice of Alastair McGowan and I still tend to believe that is the best way of seeing him.
		As the name suggests, 2DTV consists entirely of 2D animation, using the latest computer technology to speed up the animation process and enable topical animation to become a reality.

	Guardian Unlimited \| The Guardian \| 2DTV is worthy succesor to Spitting Image
		When ITV announced a new animated satirical show back in August, they little thought that they would be launching it in the middle of a war.
		Back then, what hit the headlines was the fact that 2DTV, the heir to the Spitting Image crown, would be turning Posh and Becks into cartoon characters.
		Considering the resulting acres of coverage, it's probably just as well nobody could foresee at the time that 2DTV's most daring creation would not be a stick-like singer and her dim husband, but a cuddly, bearded "Tele-Bannie" called Bin-La-La. If all goes to plan, the world will have been introduced to Bin-La-La last night.

	Toon News - 2DTV
		"2DTV," the top British animated comedy show, returns to ITV with its up-to-the-minute sketches on the week's news.
		The first series of 2DTV went out in ten-minute slots in October, 2001, just after the U.S.A. and its allies had started bombing Afghanistan in the wake of the 11th September terrorist attacks.
		Such was the show's success that ITV1 has extended its slot from ten to 30 minutes, while earlier this year, George Michael asked Pilbrow and Searle to produce the video for his single, Shoot The Dog.

	BBC NEWS \| Entertainment \| TV and Radio \| Satire ad ban 'too hasty'
		A TV watchdog has said its rules were applied too rigidly over an advert for satirical cartoon 2DTV banned for making fun of US President George Bush.
		The commercial for a Christmas video from the team behind the ITV1 show was prevented from being shown after it was ruled insulting to Mr Bush.
		Producers defended the ads by saying the show itself was more abusive, but had never had a warning from TV watchdogs.

	Film Review: 2DTV: Series 3
		2DTV is an animated impression sketch show, voiced by Jon Culshaw and others best known for their work on Dead Ringers.
		2DTV doesn't commit Dead Ringers' crime of having to introduce every sketch by saying, "My name is..." but that's thanks to the animators rather than the impressionists.
		The look of the show suggests that were the jokes, or impressions, up to scratch, 2DTV could have been wonderful.

	The Observer \| Screen \| TV's rapid response unit
		The satirical animation show 2DTV was conceived in an atmosphere of celebrity-obsession, irony and complete lack of interest in far-flung places with complicated internal politics.
		The first programme went out last Sunday in an entirely different world, in which most of its potential audience had not only heard of al-Qaeda but could translate it from the Arabic, and where the impact of the overthrow of the Taliban on the Islamist opposition in Pakistan had become a burning question.
		So, although 2DTV hasn't got a version of Tony Blair anything like as clever as Private Eye 's vicar of St Albion's, it may yet find one.

	Ban on Bush ad lifted (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		A widely ridiculed ban on an advert parodying George Bush without his permission has been lifted after advertising regulators admitted it was "rather harsh".
		The makers of 2DTV had been barred from using a clip of the US president from the award-winning animated satire to promote a Christmas video because it breached rules barring advertisers using public personalities without their permission.
		When Giles Pilbrow, the producer of 2DTV, resubmitted the ad he was told it could be shown after all.

		In addition during the close credits there are also three little outtakes sketches, Toy Story and Monster inc style and it has to be said these are probably the weakest area of the whole disc.
		Thanks to the fact that 2DTV was originally recorded to be broadcast on ITV digital the whole things has been presented in anamorphic 16:9 widescreen and it looks fantastic.
