Have been catching up with Years and Years on iPlayer recently and one has to hope it's not too accurate a vision of our future - the below fake BBC News clip is from a scene set in 2026, where they're apparently still using the graphics and studios launched in 2013, and no Reith!

Maybe someone at the BBC saw our discussions and decided to mess with us.

At least they finally stopped being 4:3 safe, and Simon hasn't aged a day in 6 years

I'm surprised its taken this long for Years and Years to be mentioned here, considering the large amount of real and made up national, regional and international news programmes that is featured. Its worth a thread itself.

I'm not surprised. It's been a huge flop for BBC One.

Has it really? I’ve seen a lot of positive comment. Are the ratings poor?

Let's just say the ratings aren't exactly great...

Around 1.5 million I believe? Abysmal ratings for BBC One.
