Charlie Brooker Daily

silverrock:

[Voice-over] And then, there’s Countdown; in which the hours before the grave can be gently whiled away solving meaningless anagrams.

Charlie Brooker: Countdown’s a bit of an odd choice for the elderly viewer. Really. When I’m really old, I don’t think I want to spend my afternoon staring at a gigantic, mercilessly ticking clock. Waiting for the last few precious seconds to expire… while two young-people demonstrate their superior, mental agility. And a nubile woman in a figure hugging dress taunts me with sexually-charged consonants and vowels.

I think, when I’m 80, I’d rather watch young-people being kicked into the sea.
