Yummy cultural analysis and please please consider watching the UK version and giving us a deconstruction? It's replete with specifically Brit forms of nonsense.
Yessssss! We need this. I enjoyed season one, novel game, cool setting and outfits etc; but season two had a lot of stuff that ground my gears. Cheeky chappies, tokenism around disability (included in the game in a horrible choc-box variety spread, but plenty of physical challenges without accommodations), dogpiles in banishment meetings (sometimes with racist nuance - watch out for season 2 chess strategist going through the mill), and - worst of all - a thread of Brit militarism right through. Let's see how it strikes you guys.
Uh, premature comment before reading to squeal in delight ! Ok gonna go read now
