''The New Statesman'' was an English television comedy drama series made in the late 1980s and early 1990s satirising the United Kingdom's Conservative Party Government of the period. It was written by Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran at the request of, and as a starring vehicle for, its principal actor Rik Mayall. The show's theme tune is an arrangement by Alan Hawkshaw of part of the ''Promenade'' from ''Pictures at an Exhibition'' by Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky. The programme was made by the ITV franchise Yorkshire Television between 1987 and 1992, although the BBC made two special episodes; one in 1988, the other in 1994. ==Cast list== *Rik Mayall as Alan B'Stard *Michael Troughton as Piers Fletcher-Dervish *Marsha Fitzalan as Sarah B'Stard *Rowena Cooper as Norman/Norma Bormann (Series 1; she was credited as "R.
