Inspired by that tv show about New York on BBC which looks like it’s for kids but isn’t.
We’re in the fish market talking to the fish seller, how many fish will you sell tonight?
About 5000
WOW!?!?!?!?!?!
How big is this market?
It’s about 5 football pitches?!?!?!
WOW, gobsmacked.
We’re on a big bridge talking to the truck driver, how many trucks go over this bridge?
1500000
WOW, to give you an idea of how big that is, it’s about 1 million cows!!!
gobsmacked
I’d like to talk more about that New York programme though.
The fuck is it all about? Who is the target audience? It’s like they’ve made a film to explain western civilisation to a long-lost tribe or something but have accidentally aired it on the BBC instead. “So you’re telling me these people can order a pizza when they’re hungry and then the pizza restaurant prepares their pizza and delivers it to them? Very interesting”
Fancy the fuck out of Anita Rani though so swings and roundabouts.
The theory I expressed to my partner was that they sent them out for a One Show segment and ended up getting way too much footage to edit down so turned it into it’s own show.
She was neither interested or particularly willing to discuss my theory
