Paul looks at Seeing Things Season 2 Episode 3 “Seeing Double,” where an urn is the macguffin, and we look at Sugar Crisp, a swim pavilion, and another performer from the series. Then he moves across the pond and the decade to Press Gang Series 1 Episode 6 “Interface.” Here he looks at what appears to be an English Whiz Kids episode, as well as examining an actual interface, and a performer who uses it.
