I mean obviously Fahrenheit 451 and The Handmaid’s Tale if you liked BNW and 1984!
Personally I enjoyed a lot of HG Wells’ work for similar reasons — War of The Worlds, for example, is an obvious allegory for colonialism, (with the aliens as the empire builders). The original book is excellent. I binged a tonne of his works, including the Time Machine, the invisible man, the sleeper wakes and the island of dr Moreau. They’re quite short books. Easily read in a day (though I am a fast reader).
Otherwise I quite enjoyed for whom the bell tolls (Hemingway; set during the Spanish civil war, in which he fought, as well as Orwell funnily enough).

Imagine I bothered to look up the Matt Damon rapidly aging gif, and put it in this reply. If it’s not too much trouble.


Marigold is a flower — e.g. marsh marigolds :)


Yeah — on the rare occasion that I have a night out, when I get home I drink more water than I need to not feel thirsty (about two glasses). Alcohol makes you dehydrated and when you wake up in the morning that makes a hangover massively worse.
Personally I find hangovers worse than the enjoyment of getting drunk, so typically won’t have more than 2/3 drinks anyway \o/
Stilton and port. Woof.
God I wish — instead I remain trapped in this fleshy prison :/
I did watch it and enjoyed it, but felt it wasn’t quite as good as that Mitchell and Webb look. Certain sketches (e.g. sweary Aussie drama) felt like the same joke repeated, rather than variations on a theme as for e.g. remain indoors, and the pacing didn’t feel quite as snappy. Felt like the ideas — a lot of which landed well — were being stretched a bit further than the original series.
Not to knock it too much, as there was a lot there that I did like, just not quite on the same level for me personally.
A (radio) series I did really enjoy from writers on that earlier series is John Finnemore’s Souvenir programme (esp. the first few series, but I also really loved series 9 even if it wasn’t a traditional sketch format). Def worth a listen.
They’ve had such a cultural impact haha. From ‘are we the baddies’ to numberwang to hennimore to ‘please remain indoors’. It was such a talented writing group when you look on Wikipedia


I like :) good job!
I can’t believe the lack of mushroom stroganoff mentions. What has this world come to smh
