MEMBERS of the Isle of Wight's Minghella family are behind a video currently going viral, starring actor Andy Serkis mocking Prime Minister Theresa May, in a resurrection of the Lord of the Rings character Gollum.

The spoof centres on Theresa May's approach to Brexit, and shows her pitching for a people’s vote on the final deal.

We Wants It was written and directed by the Isle of Wight's Dominic Minghella, and produced by Mark Lucas.

The credits also include Dominic's children Louisa Minghella as assistant producer and Dan Minghella as script editor.

Actor Serkis, who shot to prominence with his unforgettable depiction of Gollum, revived the creature's mannerisms in a dig at Mrs May's handling of Brexit.

The film was published on Facebook by Silverfish Films, under the heading LEAKED: Footage From Inside No. 10 Downing Street!

The script includes lines such as: "Ah precious, our agreement, this is it, our deal. Yes, yes.

"We takes back control. Money, borders, laws… blue passports. I finds it. I negotiates it."
