Georgie and Poppy Carlton make fun of America and Americans
Poppy (
Amy Hoggart) has real potential. Her timing is superb.

The British Empire has gotten too small. Its time to ask for a few of the United States back. Who will volunteer? #PoliticsWithPoppy
Not quite as funny as
Spy but better than the 89th rerun of Star Trek. The narration (by Gemma Whelan) is hilarious.
