"Dear God, what a carnival..."

...except that in the end, it only took 7,179 days.

I've banged on about Years and Years on Twitter before now. If you didn't watch it, head over to the iPlayer for it this very second.

Also, if you haven't already done so, make haste to Bagging Area to read Swiss Adam's excellent piece on the true cost of Brexit, prorogation and the rest of the sorry mess...

  1. Watched it as it aired and it scared the bejesus out of me. All too prophetic for my liking. Will head over to SA's post now.

    1. Speculative fiction is getting quite hard these days, however far-fetched things might seem they keep getting overtaken by reality, sadly.

    2. So true - That's been happening for years though. I went to see the Long Good Friday again recently as it was showing at our local cinema - So much of what was happening in London came to pass.

      The way things are going, we are all going to need oxygen tanks attached to our persons soon, yet not sure if anyone saw that one coming in the near future.

    1. I know. I wonder if the writers thought they were taking things to an extreme...they don't see so extreme now...
