   What happened to Spitting Image?

   • By the early 1990s, Spitting Image’s ratings were in decline. Most of the original creative team had left. Other ventures, such as a Madame Tussauds-style Rubberworks exhibition or children’s TV show The Winjin’ Pom, had not generated much needed extra income. The final series aired in 1996. Spitting Image has since been revived.
