    Partially - S1 still holds up I think. Probably S2 as well but then I think it loses it. The ridiculousness of the situations seem to be more apparent plus newer series are just so much better written.

    How far through did you get?

    I haven't watched it for a while so I'll report back. So far the only jarring thing has been the acting by the actress who plays Teri Bauer. She's bad.

    The president of a local gypsy "commune" in Greece stated on TV something along the lines of "we need help from the state, with the lockdown gypsies can't go out to beg for money, steal from people, provide for their families".

    That’s what I was thinking. 6 years on Twitter with 13.7k tweets and only 80 followers. I must have about 3x that in bots alone.

    I had an Iranian housemate for a year and she insisted that she was 'Persian'. Proper bird, bowling around with her hair out and all that. She's probably in prison over there now.

    Regarding the unprecedented nature of things and comparison to the financial crash, it's worth pointing out during in 2008 apparently our finance chiefs came crying to the government when the shit hit the fan and Darling asked them what their contingency plans were, to which they said they had none.

    This virus outbreak is more unprecedented than the 2008 financial crash but in contrast to the financial chiefs the NHS actually produced a report outlining this scenario in 2016 which was buried because it cost too much, the Brexit bus funding having yet been secured.

    Some of S3 then stopped. America as the squeeky clean policeman lost a bit of it's truthiness compared to the immediate post 9/11 world.

    I barely played Far Harbor or Nuka World so I started and ran straight to the former this time. Reaching Far Harbor at level two in just a vault suit - nearly 10 hours in now and I've just managed to kill the trappers outside the main town.

    These Care Home figures are going to be obscene based on the percentages this fella on BBC has just given. 47% of deaths in London Care Homes last week had Covid19 on the death certificate.

    Edit: now they're saying these figures are 2 weeks old?

    So ... if this BBC ticker is right, 16,000 people+ had Covid on the death certificate in that week (ending 3rd April) alone.

    EDIT: The ticker's bollocks.

    I still find this a nightmare to read and follow.

    Figures released on Tuesday by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) show that across England and Wales, one in five of the 16,387 death certificates issued that week mentioned the disease.

    13,109 died of something else.

    Actually, the care home figures in this (as of 7th April) seem ... minor. 217 in total across England & Wales.

    Do the near-dead regularly make a valiant effort to see it through to the new year, or do thousands of people just wilt in their homes around that time and aren't discovered for two weeks?

    The one line he has, which I actually agree he did very well on, was closing down flights. But as that's all he has he just brings every question back to it. It's fascinating to watch.

    There's still traffic between US, EU and UK but I don't know how much of that is empty flights (pilots keeping their hours up), cargo or connections on to other countries.
