Adam Curtis has a new show out tomo, Shifty, about how power shifted in Britain from 1979 - 2000. It's REALLY good. He's so great at bringing things in that shouldn't fit but do, like Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Ep5 with the Dome and subprime is devastating. Trailer: www.instagram.com/p/DJuTlbKx6P7/
