I make no claim to be amazingly well read but the one on Nietzsche has given me a strong desire to read his stuff.....clearly the before he went mental stuff

He was always a bit mental, tbh.

I'm working my way through Murder in Successville.

Whilst I appreciate it does not compare on an intellectual level, the Chris Kamara episode was a ****ing classic.

I watched the first one the other day - wasn't really sure about it. Probably didn't help that it was one of the arses of Made in Chelsea as the guest star. Couple of genuinely funny moments though, so will get a few more a try

Nietzsche was a **** though, AFAIU.

Actually, he wasn't. The interpretations of what he said and his unfortunate adoption by the Nazis have made him sound that way, but in fact his was a profoundly humane philosophy that sought to make sense of the role of man in a post-religious world.
