The Cameron and Clegg show

The Twitterati have been busy parsing the new coalition government's first press conference , held in the sunlit garden of Downing Street. Of course, there is the substance of the coalition deal to discuss, but first impressions matter – and much of the comment so far has been on the body language, tone and, yes, even the gags of the Cameron-Clegg show. But the big question is who does this new double act remind you of? Here are a few of the Tweets: @ jameskirkup : Oh god. The country is now being run by two characters from a Richard Curtis film. @ CharlieBeckett : Christ - they are turning into Morecambe and Wise. Or is it Ant and Dec. Or Alias Smith and Jones? @ j_freedland : What is it that this double act reminds me of? Fry and Laurie? Jeeves and Wooster? @ martinkettle : This press conference is almost as skittish as Charles and Di together before they got married @ krishgm : Or was it Keith Harris and Orville? But who do you think are the antecedents of this new duo on the stage of British political theatre?
