Charlie Brooker is less a man made of flesh and gristle, and more of a seething, splenetic modern media phenomenon, savaging society’s silly foibles and crass obsessions with aplomb. His latest vehicle Ten O’Clock Live has had its own mauling over recent months, but this skit from last night’s show is proof that if form is temporary, class is permanent.
