'Barry Shitpeas' [Al Campbell] and 'Philomena Cunk' [Diane Morgan] comment on the TV show 'Africa'. A segment on Gun Control in America has a kid wielding a child friendly AR15. Doug Stanhope talks up America. Brooker chats about Django Unchained and slavery in America with Richard Osman and Susan Calman, before ending with news snippets in a segment called 'the world of bullshit'.
