Armando Iannucci has directed three movies since 2009, but his celebrated career in comedy and satire stretches far beyond 'In The Loop', 'The Death of Stalin' and 'The Personal History of David Copperfield'. The Scottish-born writer and director shot to fame with his work with Chris Morris on 'The Day Today' in the mid-90s (which also featured the first appearance of Alan Partridge), and established new heights for British satire with 'The Thick of It', later creating 'Veep' in the US. Adam, Azeem and returning guest Rahul Patel discussed Iannucci's inspiration, what makes him such a memorable director, and just how accurately he depicts the pitfalls of civilisation as we know it.

26, get your kicks. Peter Fellows co-wrote the hit film 'The Death of Stalin', alongside David Schneider, Ian Martin and Armando Iannucci. It's another success on Iannucci's, one of the UK's biggest comedy writers, Wikipedia page - along with Alan Partridge, 'The Thick of It' and 'Veep', which Peter has also co-written for.The film stars Jason Isaacs, Steve Buscemi, Jeffrey Tambor, Andrea Riseborough and Peter talks about what it's like writing jokes to come out of their mouths, and what it's like pitching Hollywood actors a gag whilst on set. Also, we chat about how a tiny, elevator-pitch-of-an-idea gets fleshed out over countless emails, until it's finally ready to play in cinemas. And, you can find out the type of joke Peter never really wants to tell.
