One of the most acclaimed British films of recent years, In The Loop is a razor-sharp political comedy satirising the inner mechanics of the 'special relationship' between London and Washington.

A devastatingly sharp, foul-mouthed political comedy from the reigning king of satire, writer and director Armando Iannucci (The Thick of It, The Day Today, Knowing Me, Knowing You with Alan Partridge and the too little seen and short-lived Amando Iannucci Show), In The Loop creates a world in which the US President and UK Prime Minister fancy a war, but not everyone agrees that war is a 'good thing'. Starring Peter Capaldi, James Gandolfini, Tom Hollander, Gina McKee, Chris Addison, Anna Chulmsky, Mimi Kennedt and Steve Coogan, the film reunites the award-winning writing team behind The Thick of It, bringing together writers Armando Iannucci, Jesse Armstrong, Simon Blackwell and Tony Roche, producer Adam Tandy with film producer Kevin Loader.

In the Loop will be released on UK DVD on 24th August 2009 by Optimum Home Entertainment on DVD and Blu-ray at the RRP of £17.99 (DVD) and £24.99 (Blu-ray). Extra features on both will include:
