UK readers of a certain age will remember BBC show Dead Ringers, which brought together some brilliant impressionists to satirise the latest news, and 25 years on they’re out on the road celebrating a quarter of a century of laughter. The quartet on tour includes two Star Wars related voices in Lewis MacLeod (the voice of Sebulba in The Phantom Menace) and Jon Culshaw, who voiced a series of radio adverts promoting Celebration Europe in 2007.
