One segment titled ‘Meghan Markle’s Royal Sparkle’ sees a version of the actress-turned-royal take questions from people in the studio in order to 'get to know you, the United British of Kingdom people'. 

The outlandish version of Duchess of Sussex develops a violent rage towards her sister-in-law, the Duchess of Cambridge.

'What makes you angry?' an audience member asks the Duchess, voiced by actress and writer Gbemisola Ikunelo.

The programme will also feature Russian despot Vladimir Putin (pictured) in a host role, and appearances by Alastair Campbell and June Sarpong
