[cultural sensitivity] Things I Learned Watching Only Cumberbitch's Episode of HIGNFY
This week Benedict Cumberbitch (BBC's Sherlock, in case you live under a rock) hosted comedy-news programme Have I Got News For You. As I foreigner I learned two things:

I wish every night ended with a most welcome plate of complimentary sandwiches. I really do.
