The Un-Credible Shrinking Man was a Party Political Broadcast by the United Kingdom's Labour Party that was aired in May 2014. [1]
It starred Dominic Coleman as David Cameron. [2]
It attracted media attention for its parody of the 1950s black-and-white film The Incredible Shrinking Man. Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg is portrayed as The Un-Credible Shrinking Man in a comedy piece that sees him being treated with contempt by his coalition partners in the Conservative Party, shrinking to the size of a doll as he is forced to abandon his party's election manifesto policies, and finally being chased by the Downing Street cat. [3] [4] The Liberal Democrats released their own black-and-white film in response, portraying Labour leader Ed Miliband as the "incredible silent man". [5]
