  7. The comments tell you all you need to know. For example "Nothing screams the legacy of F1 like having Will. i. am chant "Let's go" over neon advertising for Heineken 0% at night in Las Vegas. Truly the watershed moment fans have waited 70 years for." "Artists being up for several minutes and drivers being lowered down before the presenter could finish their names tells you all you need to know about this event" "It's definitely Eurovision meets the Hunger Games F1, but I don't hate it." "Wow I was expecting it to be bad but that absolutely exceeded my expectations in every way" "The Ending part was awesome. The part where it ended."

  16. Happy Guy Fawkes Night! for those of you not familiar with it, let Stephen Merchant explain! Not Clear? How about a mini-series ? Guy Fawkes ("the last man to enter Parliament with honest intentions") Was involved in The Gunpowder Plot, ( see also https://www.parliament.uk/about/living-heritage/evolutionofparliament/parliamentaryauthority/the-gunpowder-plot-of-1605/) caught, tried and executed for treason. But not just any execution. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanged,_drawn_and_quartered His punishment was brutal and specific (as our tour guide in York was more than happy to explain ...) " drawn backwards to his death, by a horse, his head near the ground. They were to be "put to death halfway between heaven and earth as unworthy of both". Their genitals would be cut off and burnt before their eyes, and their bowels and hearts removed. They would then be decapitated, and the dismembered parts of their bodies displayed so that they might become "prey for the fowls of the air" https://fiveminutehistory.com/the-execution-of-guy-fawkes-and-the-gunpowder-plotters-hanged-drawn-and-quartered/ So there you go. Happy Guy Fawkes Night! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunpowder_Plot_in_popular_culture
