Al gay dar
A gay terrorist organisation, with great fashion sense, but they can't fight because then they'd have clash
they flood the tube with suicide bummers
The ASDA of satire.
"Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you." Which is exactly what happened to Winston Smith. His rebellion was not one that was foolish and too outspoken. He silently tried to defeat the Party for his personal happiness, and in the end it cost him everything he had fought for, and his love for Julia. He had learned to love Big Brother, which was his ultimate fear when trying to live a life of individuality. The Party had defeated him.
1984

The national punt
The BNP open a betting shop, but as they won't take any bets backing teams with black players, they lose loads of money, and then die horribly being eaten by enraged baboon. I hate the BNP.

It's Saint Half Pot Mum
Woman vicar afflicted with dwarfism starts dealing cannabis to her son's friends

Sitcom following a serial killer who preys on orchestra members

Sitcom following forestic officers as they uncover children's graves
The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.

Very nice
The unlikely lads
Two very effeminate men, with long hair, and pronounced man boobs get mistaken for girls on a regular basis.
Hashes to hashes
Gordon Ramsey gets knocked on the head by an enraged restaunter and wakes in a 1980s greasy spoon, where the only meal he is allowed to prepare is corned beef hash.

Well I don't claim to know much about it but a guy in the pub said the 2.4 children comes from American anthropologist George Peter Murdock in his 1949 paper entitled Social Structure where he focused on family and kinship organization over a wide range of societies. His paper introduced the idea that the ideal family is the nuclear family mum dad and two point four children.
Society accepts the nuclear family as the norm as most families do begin as a nuclear family and then evolve into another type of family, traditionally when Murdock was writing in the 1940s it was the one which was seen to be the most acceptable. It was seen to be the most economically, financially, emotionally and reproductively stable, the media portrayed typical roles which are found in the nuclear family.
