Finally got around to watching Ketch! And HIRO-PON Get It On
( https://www.comedy.co.uk/tv/ketch_and_hiro_pon_get_it_on/ ). Really good stuff. Very, very clever. Unfortunately I fear it a bit too high-concept to make a full series.

Well, there are a couple of young 'uns.
And what's up with this missing plane? I thought planes where supposed to be able to withstand lightning strikes?!

But this is a French plane.

Awful hey? Just to be gone. 
It's a bit bloody scarey.

Isn't that the fate of us all? To one day just be gone. With only 7000 odd posts on a comedy forum to show we were ever alive.

It really is.

Yes, but they just disappeared hey?

No, bits of them are floating in the Atlantic Ocean somewhere.
Did they find the plane?

Not yet. But they will find it. Eventually.
Last I heard they'd asked the U.S. to look at the spy satelites to see if they saw anything.
I doubt they'll find anything to be honest.
The Atlantic Ocean is massive.
And I particularly like the way the news has been focussing on the five missing Brits. As if we can't recognise it's a tragedy without the inclusion of some fellow countrymen.

From CNN: Wreckage has been found in the Atlantic Ocean that could have come from a missing Air France jet, Brazilian officials say.
Remind me not to put Nil in charge of hide and seek.
