PSA: Amazon Prime have a huge chunk of the MGM library under licence, including all the Orion blaxploitation films, and Network. I've seen it before but it was so much better than I remembered, and savagely relevant today.

Someone’s paying people real money to flood the review pages of the Ritz and other high-end London restaurants with glowing five-star recommendations. Some people are concluding the restaurants are doing this to boost their standing. The truth is weirder. www.londoncentric.media/p/whos-payin...
Who’s paying for fake five-star reviews of The Ritz?

File under First World Problems but last night I was served the most chiselling, mean-spirited thing I've ever seen in a restaurant: £100+ tasting menu, first course after the snacks is "scallop".... this turns out to be half a scallop. HALF A SCALLOP.
