I'm really enjoying this one so far! I'm just past the inquest scene, which in itself was fascinating because of the way the media is portrayed as depicting it. Especially the "women's magazines" that hone in on the wardrobes of the female participants. Some things never change.
A couple of questions for anyone in the community who might be able to clarify:

2. The Irish sweepstakes, and the stigma behind them.
