Tracey mimics Jeremy ...and creates a Corbyn copy of the real thing!

- By Alexander Holmes Showbusine­ss Reporter

SHABBY beige suit, red tie, pensive expression – Jeremy Corbyn strikes a familiar pose... Except this isn’t the Labour leader. In another of her clever impersonat­ions, Tracey Ullman has transforme­d herself into the hard-Left politician. The 57-year-old looks the spitting image of Mr Corbyn as she dons a grey wig and beard for her topical BBC sketch show Tracey Breaks The News. In the three-part series, which begins on Friday, Miss Ullman also mimics France’s 64-yearold first lady Brigitte Macron using a blonde wig and heavy fake tan. The programme is a spin-off of Tracey Ullman’s Show in which she has lampooned Theresa May and Nicola Sturgeon. She said of her Corbyn characteri­sation: ‘[He] will no doubt be delighted to see himself depicted by a middle-aged woman.’
