Helmety Nanny State Television

I've watched with some interest the decline of British culture under its increasing loss of privacy, and the subsequent loss of freedom. From attaching speakers to nigh-ubiquitous CCTV's, so monitors can yell at spitters and public displayers of affection, to encouraging a certain amount of unhealthiness so the healthcare system does not have to pay for elective surgery, like hip replacements or root canals. But what if they decided to change television shows on the fly, as soon as those monitors of the public good deem something "unseemly?" What would that look like? Let's ask some Brits what they think!



"Just shut up and spin!"
