Sadly, lying for decades to everyone is indeed Britain's greatest artistic cultural achievement.
- permo-w 1y agothis is a mentally lazy response

- verisimi 1y agoI agree with that ^ though I'd say the bbc has told more than it's fair share. Must I love it?
- permo-w 1y agoof course you can love it or not love it, but I'd make my decision based on whether you enjoy its content rather than on what MI5 made them do during the cold war
