It's not a wheel...

...it's a carousel. The finest television programme , possibly ever, reached the end of its second series last week. Mad Men holds a mirror up to some of the most disquieting and disconcerting aspects of 60's culture and, by inference, our own times. In Don Draper they have created a character that is uniquely intriguing - on one hand, the very definition of respectability, on the other, monstrous - willing to do anything and everything for his own boundless self-gratification - witness the link to the clip here. If you haven't seen the show; and fellow twats should be ashamed of themselves if they've missed it, the first series is available to own now.
