@MsDropbear42 ...aaaaaand so now i have abandoned #W1A, in S3 E1. In the last ep of S2 they began focusing their heavy-handed OTT mockery on inclusivity, so ofc they decided to use trans peeps for target practice [specifically transvestites vs transsexuals, grrrrrrrrrr]. In that prior ep they were still sufficiently vague as to be able to claim plausible deniability, so i persisted, albeit with dark foreboding. However in S3 E1 they dropped any pretence of subtlety & just went for it, via a big boofy supposed crossdresser, with that as The Joke.
Ugh. 🤢🤮
Any show, author, organisation et al that chooses to use trans peeps as a comedic &/or criminal device, makes an enemy of me evermore.
Fuck off, shit-head creators of W1A !!! 😡🖕

Finished rewatching The Thick Of It last night, now watching W1A https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W1A_(TV_series). It's pretty excruciating, in a good way.
The Narrator role [David Tennant], & style, really strongly reminds me of People Like Us, which i really loved back in the day... until ofc the news broke about Chris Langham. Later when i researched it & learned that both mockumentaries were penned by John Morton, it made complete sense.
The theme music is really intriguing me. It gives me very strong flashbacks to I Dream Of Jeannie, which is a bit weird.
Mozilla says the new Firefox senior vice president has "also served as Chief Product Officer at Better."
Today I learned that Alastair Campbell has a daughter who sounds exactly like Siobhan Sharpe
