Every now and again you come across something that totally and without purpose reminds you of something else. For the last few weeks there have been posters all over the place advertising Channel 4's lastest US imported, multi-plot, flash-backy, open-ended television series called 'The Event'. I have no idea what it's about, other than "the biggest cover up in American history" starting off with a crashed plane and has disapearances, assasinations and all that sort of jazz... you know, like most of the Lost/Heroes/24 type shows.
Unfortunally for Channel 4 the name "The Event" simply makes me think that this is a prequel to the 'that Michell and Webb look' sketch, "The Quiz Broadcast", set in some sort of post apocalyptic world, set ~600 days after what is only ever refered to as, "The Event".
