Russell Brand going viral sent this brilliant Morgana Robinson impression into orbit and it’s simply savage
As you will no doubt know by now, Russell Brand’s been popping up on everyone’s Twitter accounts this week after a video he made about Kamala Harris and the US presidential election race went viral.
There’s no need to bother you with it again, and thank goodness for that.
But the reason we mention it is because it had the most welcome consequence of sending this Morgana Robinson impression into orbit. It’s from a Charlie Brooker Screenwipe back in the day and it’s just magnificent!

And here’s just a little bit of the love (and fascinating extra detail …) that followed.

This is brilliant in so many different ways. Not just the frightening accuracy of the impression, but it’s the best take off of his stupidly overblown nonsense paranoia spiel I think I’ve seen. Brilliant. https://t.co/vg8Kh2raPc

I’m all in for all these Russell Brand pisstakes. Nobody deserves it more. https://t.co/E78Q6enttv

This isn’t accurate at all – Robinson’s version of Brand appears to make coherent political points https://t.co/ywpoKxAGfN

What’s weird about this going suddenly viral is that when we wrote it, it was in response to him evolving into an odd political kingmaker, where he’d be asked to do this act on Newsnight. He was never part of the comedy scene, really, more a side effect of the attention economy. https://t.co/CLumshsHOJ

To conclude …
Damn, that’s an actual masterclass.
