Room 101

WARNING: this episode contains VERY strong language.

Since we’ve been so nice in recent weeks, the Cowboys felt like venting for a change. We’ve got together and fixed upon the eight most rancid, horrible things about video games and movies which are bothering us at the moment and took turns submitting them for dismissal, destruction and obscurity in the bowels of Orwell’s Room 101. This is the premise of an amusing BBC show which has run on and off since 1994, originally presented by Nick Hancock and then Paul Merton.

The sorry task for the three hosts not pitching is to defend the wretched things in order to keep them from their grisly fate. Who shall be saved?

There is more bile, venom and cursing in this episode than ever before, so the faint-hearted should steer clear. However, those with an axe to grind about having their time wasted by cinemas and their digital possessions highly priced and badly managed should find much here be tickled with.
