Kenya has had a strong history of political cartooning, one of the key players being Godfrey Mwampembwa, otherwise known as Gado. Here Gado uses a combination of animation and puppetry to create a Kenyan equivalent of "Spitting Image". In the form of a political talk show, this pilot for a projected television series gives the viewer a taste of Kenyan humour with its caricatures of Kenyan politicians and satirical portrayal of local political issues.
