Worth mentioning the first ‘witch’ story is Equal Rites, if people want to start the series at the beginning (not that you need to!)

Channel 4 once did a documentary dissecting large animals: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inside_Nature's_Giants
Including a whale, an elephant, etc
Is it though? Or is it a critique how the education system can be used to indoctrinate minorities into voting against their interests and perpetuating inequality?
There’s certain songs I can only sing along to with a roughed up throat (Leonard Cohen, for example). The one silver lining of feeling like shite!
Good humour certainly makes me [redacted for the sake of public decency]
I did watch it and enjoyed it, but felt it wasn’t quite as good as that Mitchell and Webb look. Certain sketches (e.g. sweary Aussie drama) felt like the same joke repeated, rather than variations on a theme as for e.g. remain indoors, and the pacing didn’t feel quite as snappy. Felt like the ideas — a lot of which landed well — were being stretched a bit further than the original series.
Not to knock it too much, as there was a lot there that I did like, just not quite on the same level for me personally.
A (radio) series I did really enjoy from writers on that earlier series is John Finnemore’s Souvenir programme (esp. the first few series, but I also really loved series 9 even if it wasn’t a traditional sketch format). Def worth a listen.
They’ve had such a cultural impact haha. From ‘are we the baddies’ to numberwang to hennimore to ‘please remain indoors’. It was such a talented writing group when you look on Wikipedia
