I have this hunch the intro music started out intending to sound like the kind of tacky poo poo someone like Kendal would listen to ("it's classy piano, right, but it's got a hip hop beat and sub bass"), but ended up being taken seriously because a load of people liked it. It's proper shite.

i had the same thought exactly; it's the kind of music Kendal would hear in his own head as his own personal theme music as he entered the board room like a wrestler

What's the betting that Hunt or one of his aides will leave a note in a desk saying "There's no money left" before leaving?

That's a tradition now, right?

Tory Chancellor Reggie Maudling's note when tories lost the election in in 1964:

"Upon being forced out of the post by the election defeat, Maudling left a note to his successor, James Callaghan, simply stating "Good luck, old cock.... Sorry to leave it in such a mess".["

Wonder why no one goes on about that note!

Succession music is perfect for the show - it’s faux fancy piano, slightly discordant and unsettling- exactly as it should be.

The main theme of Succession is good, but it was the orchestral pieces such as this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVuutOx-LPk - that got my musical brain internally noodling for weeks/months. I will die on the hill that this was an incredible score for an incredible series.

Succession absolutely mastered the art of closing credits music. Those pieces almost always felt like a gut punch after the preceding scene.

Bold suggestion, maybe don't wade into a thread if you can't read the pretty clear...it's not even subtext, it's just text. Also "hmmmm I think you need a break" literally as soon as he got back from a month long probation is extremely funny though presumably unintentionally so.

I'd hazard a guess that nursing and social care workers predominantly fall below that threshold.

The building trade as well (those that actually declare their earnings).

Virtually all nurses who are not both very experienced (in terms of years worked) and highly ranked - so only the most experienced specialist nurses and nurse managers would survive. To be fair if you've gotten that far you'd most probably have a PR at this point. All the lower ranks that you actually need loads of to keep the system running and are imported en masse from everywhere are going to get hosed.

All the junior doctors who are not specialist trainees (4+ years post graduation) are also gonna be screwed. Again you also need loads of them to actually run the show and we keep importing them from all over.

There will inevitably be exemptions for these as the NHS will have a cardiac arrest before you even finish deporting the cleaners much less the actual healthcare staff.
