Prince Andrew brutally savaged in latest episode of Spitting Image

Prince Andrew featured prominently in the latest episode of Spitting Image. The popular hit show is back with a new series, titled Spitting Image: The Rest Is Bulls*!t, which airs every Friday.

In the latest episode, the show pokes fun at Prince Andrew's scandal with convicted paedophile, Jeffrey Epstein, and the latest allegations against him in his sex abuse accuser, Virginia Giuffre's, posthumous memoir, Nobody's Girl, which was released recently. Andrew's segment begins with Prince Harry, who is co-hosting the new series with Paddington Bear, who tells viewers:

"Well, my family's got an album dropping tomorrow. Let's take a look!"

The clip then cuts to an advertisement for Andrew's latest album, Never Mind the Allegations, Here's the Sex Pest. The title is a satirical take on the Sex Pistols' 1977 album, Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols.

The disgrace prince's puppet is then seen singing: "Cause I, wanna be a monarchy. No more titles any more, no more titles any more." He then attempts another song, singing: "I gotta hold you, gotta hold you tight. I got the teenage chicks all through the night. Alright."

The monarchy is coming under increasing pressure to resolve the issue of Andrew, with some MPs eager to debate the topic.

The King's brother is said to be in talks with Charles's representatives about leaving Royal Lodge voluntarily after the furore over the "peppercorn" rent for the 30-room mansion, where he has lived for more than 20 years.

Andrew attempted to draw a line under years of controversy after allegations that he sexually abused Virginia Giuffre, by giving up his dukedom and other honours ahead of the publication of her posthumous memoirs earlier this month.

But the prince, who strenuously denies the allegations, was instead swamped by criticism focused on the property he has lived in effectively rent-free since 2003.

Obstacles to a settlement are reportedly where Andrew, eighth in line to the throne, will live and what financial recompense he will receive for the funds he spent renovating the home.

The Government has so far refused to allocate time in the House of Commons for MPs to discuss Andrew's situation because the royal family wants Parliament to focus on "important issues".
