If comedy is subjective and can rise and fall with whatever the fashion of the day dictates then at some point, we must expect almost every historical scenario to be discussed as potential for a sitcom, or at the least as backdrop and discussion in which to drive the genre forwards.

To compare like with like is only human, and whilst art is not a competition, it cannot be dismissed when holding in your thoughts two versions of a much loved and admired source material to which both versions claim to be authentic and with the spirit of the author in their production.

A Government not afraid of the possibility of its people rebelling against them is one that surely does not exist, for the very nature of Government is to lie through its teeth and sow discord under the banner of freedom. It is up to the individual of how much they can stomach, what lies they are willing to let stand and which ones they need to follow closely in the hope that they will be exposed, and which ones they might openly defy.

There is always mileage in the heart of a universal play that means it never runs out of steam, it might falter and choke once in a while, it might be considered as bloated, overweight, have the wrong driver, be overwhelmed by passengers who contribute nothing to the aesthetics of the piece but on the whole it is one that often purrs along. The luxury on the outside replicated on the inside, the joy of seeing the production vehicle out on the road is a radiant sight and even when it is via the medium of television, the excitement and drama is one on which to celebrate.

Every human on Earth has the capacity to become something they detest, something that lingers in the dark realms and festers, seething with hatred, jealousy, rage and revulsion, a creature to whom the simple pleasures enjoyed by others become something of ridicule because they are not like us. This trait is something we overpower every day, something we must steer away from lest the terrifying notion of Fascism looks up and sees an opening in the crack and crawls like a demented pregnant Black Widow Spider, one filled with insanity and corrupted thought into the lives of everyone it touches. It is the Dalek that lingers in us all and appears without hesitation if pushed.
