The episode titles and descriptions seem very familiar, although the focus on Britain might give this one a bit more detail. The longer descriptions when you click through to each episode have these lists of the things you'll see in each one, like some 'Grim Britannia' themed free association.

"Gay Scottish Disco. Intersex dog. Mrs Thatcher. Encounter group. Ghosts of the Empire. Jimmy Savile. The Cheese and Onion computer. Video dating. Ian Curtis. Monetarism. Dead pilot. Stephen Hawking and Black Holes. National Front. Fat-shaming ventriloquist. Dub clash sound system. Party elephant. W****r on the line. Racist attacks. Bucks Fizz."​
