British comedian plays Farage on a Sitcom: A half hour one off "Mockumentary"

Comedian Kevin Bishop is to play Nigel Farage in a one-off comedy about the outgoing UKIP leader. This is set to be a one off.  The title of the show will be based on Nigel's comment during a speech in July and his speech after the Referendum, when Farage said: " In the speech, in which he resigned as UKIP leader, he said: "During the referendum campaign, I said I want my country back. What I'm saying today is I want my life back, and it begins right now." 

Bishop said the character is "a gift of Parody". He also said he is delighted to be playing such a colourful character and that he is looking forward to bringing to previous unseen aspects of his life on screen.

According to the Executive Producer; Peter Holmes, this production could not feel any better as Nigel Farage has contributed hugely to the current political event in the of recent times and everybody has an opinion of him.
