Shifty (2025)
S01E03 Part Three - I Love a Millionaire
Episode Overview
In Britain, money emerged as the new standard, intended to bring order and rationality. Yet, it intertwined with lingering historical influences and proved to be less predictable than anticipated. From Russell & Bromley's shoes to Mrs. Thatcher's vibrant earrings, the narrative weaves through various elements like Dolly the horse, fading liberal intellects, and moonlit leeks. The Duke of Westminster, the enigmatic Bitch, modern art, and Morrissey’s wistfulness all play their parts. We encounter make-up by Rimmel, Dodi Fayed, and Ken Dodd's suitcase, alongside themes of data extraction, the rise of the first Islamist group, and the ancient covenants of English power, along with MDMA and Mrs. Thatcher reciting poetry. A white rasta also makes an appearance.
