Watching them, watching.

How is it possible that a programme can be so successful? A TV show about us watching people watching TV and can its so engrossing? It is called Gogglebox on Channel 4. I watched it last night and really enjoyed it. The people are just like you and me and this is the very source of its success. I was impressed by the degree of sophistication and political understanding regarding the recent murder of a Russian citizen shot down in cold blood on the Moscow streets. It is generally assumed by one of Putin's gang of ruthless henchmen. No one watching believed that anyone else was responsible for this heinous act. Moreover there was a good spread of ethnic minorities represented in the programme. Worth watching.
