I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The second episode was disturbing.
This is hilarious considering what we found out about David Cameron in the intervening years.

If you're getting the black screen on the new series here's what you do.
You have to get a mirror. Hold it up to the screen when it's black. Turn it once anti clockwise for episode one. Twice for episode two and so on. Mirror also acts as a remote. Just drag it back or forward across the screen of you need to rewind or fast forward.
Look in the mirror with the black screen after the episode for a preview of next weeks episode.

Through 4 eps of this season so far and still really enjoying this series. The first ep was the weakest of the bunch, though that's because of the last 10 minutes. Eps 2, 3, and 4 were great.

I agree that the first episode is the weakest, but I think the whole episode is weak, not just the last 10 minutes.
Episode 2 and 3 were cool. I'm glad the show continues to embrace its ridiculousness.
