    My partner's started a new contract, developing a potential TV series.

    It's ..uh.. yeah. It's a moral minefield of a concept, and I'm really struggling to see how it could be actually practically realised, never mind the clusterfuck of psychological trauma that I can imagine it potentially unleashing on the contestants.

    It's making for a few interesting evening chats this week.

    I think that era of 70s–80s dystopian future TV shows is on us. We've been prepping well enough since ‘Big Brother’.

    Still, it pays well, so we're ok.

    • Put it this way, one of my questions was - "what if one of them totally spacks out and starts killing the other contestants?".
      And I'm not exaggerating.

    • Ha. Made me think of Space Cadets on C4. Is it commissioned by a specific channel? or a production co trying to pitch it to one?Fax_Benson
    • I'm saying nuttin'. Just keeping this here as a bookmark for if/when it does come out :)

    • Oh fuck. That's weird, sorry Fax!

      How did I get that wrong?
