Loved her character. She played it perfectly and her facial expressions were just spot on. If I didn't see the show, I could easily believe she's a real politician from an actual party.
It’s exactly what viv rooke quoted in the scene of explaining the earstwhile sites, people forgot about it because it worked. That’s also the same for this show people forgot this show because it worked
That thing could be used as a terrifying weapon, imagine using those things to block off any communication in its radius, you could block off any room from outside communications and take out everyone and there would be no way for people to respond or call for help.
I wonder if it’s to stop potential terror attacks with cellphone triggers! Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s used with a lot of political figures around the world
Watching the show, Rook to me is like a mix between Katie Hopkins (seriously, she looks exactly like her and has the careerist narcissism about her) and Jess Phillips (the "truth to power", style over substance neoliberal persona only minus the transphobia and disdain for sex workers). Also, I think the fact Emma Thompson's a leftist adds to this performance since she clearly knows how these kinds of people tick and can emulate them to a tee.
liberal. emma thompson is a liberal and liberalism no matter how much it tries to assimilate itself into leftism it is ultimately pro-capital and therefore the antithesis to leftism
@@mohammedhussain6749 really? Cos I have younger cousins and babysit kids and NONE of them have phones. Their parents might have iPads but they have kids modes to go on. You don't need a phone as a kid! It's only when kids start going to school by themselves or go to secondary school that they become necessary.
Vivienne aka Emma Thompson says things that are many people minds but most hesitate which gives her crazy constitutes red meat. I was also gutted by Daniel ex-husband for having Viktor sent back to Ukraine. OMG and the banks closing was just awful. There are wonderful moments intertwined unbearable realities of the country and the world.
That lady wants power. And that technology is dangerous. Your kids shouldn’t have phones either. There’s age appropriateness too. Like a kid shouldn’t drive at age 6 either. That lady should be jailed and never be allowed in any type of power position.
That's the point though. They probably wouldn't have a reason to come across it. But it's also a very believable scare tactic that's been used many times successfully. You want people to be scared and side with you? you just say the opisition is doing something terrible to your children.
I bet the god-daughter story was made just for this occassion. Very devious if you ask me, if it is true that is. But considering it's Rook were talking about, well...
she'd certainly be preferable to Farage. Rather a technophobe populist to an ex-banker rich kid twat any day. Not seen the series yet though, so I dunno how drunk with power she gets
well, it seems they're going for the 'mad with power' route as expected. I guess the idea is to persuade populists of left and right that just because a person promises to overthrow the current system that doesn't make her a good alternative per se.
@@joepeake8972 I can tell you haven't seen the show yet. In episode 5, she begins to set up concentration camps for Ukrainian immigrants coming into the country, she declares martial law, and she disbands the BBC thus making sure people don't know about these camps. I won't spoil how it ends. It's making the very important point, which I don't think is often made that people like her and Trump are verging on fascist. Fascism thrives in times of change and hardship, like now.
Typical Hate men BS. It's everywhere. Put everywhere when the writers can. So there's no women social media ceo's. Wow. Give Women Nothing is the way to go.
i sometimes think the Labour party should remember it was formed to represent the working class and not Emma Thompson and Eddie Izzard. still,glad you all enjoyed this bbc nonsense.
@@jartism Yes. For pity’s sake, people can’t see what’s in front of their eyes. The program was inspired by Trump’s election and the Brexit vote. You can find that out with a simple Google. It’s to show the danger of populism generally.

And she needs to leave office. What’s she’s doing is criminal. And that blinker is deadly.
Does such a device actually exist? That would be scary.
Why wasn't this show more popular ? This should go viral !
I only found out about this a few days ago, how come I've never heard of it
@@Jackobee231 Same!! I found this show to be a masterpiece that remains oddly underhyped
@@jackhopkins9337 same :0
Way too political.

This show is just AMAZING.
When you watch it for the first time in mid-2020 it is far beyond AMAZING more like TERRIFYINGLY GOOD I NO LONGER CAN SLEEP AT NIGHT
She is holding a Sonic Screwdriver.
Dodoodoooooooo doodoodoooooooo
Lol, looks like an updated version of the 2nd Doctor
A 6 year old girl should not have a mobile phone!!
Agree, they should get them at 4. Or maybe just the boys.
@@truxton1000 yea, like they should start driving at 2.
No, but they'd have iPads lol

Exactly. That’s the point. That’s how you gain power. She shouldn’t have any.
They had a giant blink tower in the final episode. It blocked all their phones in the erstwhile site
@@swedish_llama1356 That really scared me because even as a viewer who knows infinitely more than the characters in the show I didn't see that coming
1:21 that face Vivian makes when someone called her disgusting XD
Lol
Love it!
I bought the series only because of Emma Thompson. Probably her best performance ever!
This show is very underrated.
For good reason. It’s grotesque.
This was approved today in Brazil. Cell phones ran out of signal 200m from the dictator where he was.
Are you sure it was not just shitty Vivo coverage? Lol

I find kids these days being glued to their iPads and mobiles from a young age scary... we all need one of Viv’s devices to shut this down

Spliced with Nigel Farage.
There's a HUGE amount of Farage in there, particularly how he was a fringe nobody until popular TV appearances gave him power.
But why would you give a six year old a phone?
Jala Aldous just you
@@mohammedhussain6749 you enjoyed it? I found it a little too close to home.
Most kids have a phone or an iPad because it makes life much easier because toys aren’t everywhere and cleaning up mess all the time.

Tear the world down!
Until someone does and then its "help us" 😂
where can i buy a blink ?
Reminds me of someone…
She is full on doing a Nadine Dorries on crack impression 😂

No way
All hail Emma Thompson 🙂
Liz Truss is in the arena Northern accent et al
So is there a sauce for the video she showed? Asking for a friend
Mais si ce fameux "Blink" est activé comment l'image apparaît elle sur la tv ?? ... Ou pourquoi les caméramans continuent de filmer... '~'

Showstopper
Populist-conservativism, sovereignism!
👏
😮😮
How would a 6 year old even know what porn is?
Biologically, women do develop quicker than men because of child bearing it's a stretch but not impossible. Boys quite impossible at 6 though
