The film (full name: "GLC:  The Carnage Continues") was from The Comic
Strip (who also brought us "The Young Ones" among other classic bits). The
film is a parody of Ken Livingston who was (I believe) the last head of
the GLC (Greater London Council) which was eliminated during the Thatcher
years. I think with its strong British base, few Americans would get it
and thus no release in the U.S. But perhaps this film -- along with "Les
Dogs" (another Comic Strip film in which Kate actually acts)  -- might
possibly make it to the Tapetree this year (HINT, HINT).
