My dad fought in the war and he wasn't a racist. My late mother was a teenager and dedicated her life to helping refugees. My cousin is in her 80s and "fucking hates racists". You don't get a get out of racist jail free card simply for being old and having happened to have lived during a war.

And yet.... Vigil is great. Somehow. Partly it's the structure which is 5 episodes of Fuck Around and 1 of Find Out. Partly it's the leads who do A Lot with a homeopathic script. And mostly it's just great cos it's Vigil.

I didn’t know much about about Abdul El-Sayed before watching this but I knew as soon as I’d seen it that he’d worked as a teacher — and sure enough he was an assistant professor in epidemiology. This is how you walk a student through a dumb take.

Honestly, the fact that he was in Secret Army *and* ‘Allo ‘Allo had always struck me as rather brilliant. And it’s been great to see him having so much fun in Rivals lately!
