Notoriously foul-mouthed television critic Charlie Brooker invites three of his friends round to sit in oversized chairs, watch television, and they all take the mick out of it.

Charlie Brooker and guests cast their collective eyes over all what the telly, cinema, news and computer games have to offer, in order to wring a little laughter from a hilariously troubled world.
