Enjoyed that. Strange though

In the corridors and changing rooms of Anfield I met many people - the great, the talented, the legendary.  I know that I only met one genius.  He was a small, smiling man with a neatly clipped beard.  His name was Rafael Benitez.

I've Sky+ this.  I've read a few bad reviews from certain papers, but seeing as he's a Guardian columnist it doesn't really surprise me.  I can't see me not loving this.

I think the word you were looking for was 'shit'. Poorly written("they're laughing at us"), not nearly as clever as i t thinks it is and some outright laughable performances. Dare say if Brooker's name wasn't attached.....

Good start, strong ending, boring middle. I felt more and more sympathy for the Prime Minister but for awhile, felt it was only glimpsing how nasty people can be. Felt they showed that nastiness really well by the end and found the ending rather depressing.

Fucking hell that was dark, just unrelentingly grim. Still great though, especially the end with everyone's reactions going from excited to horrified/depressed.

Description of this week's episode, doesn't really spoil anything but just in case people want to be completely surprised.

Spoiler
Dark satire set in a future reality where everyone is confined to a life of physical drudgery - unless they can impress the judges of a popular talent show
