BAFTA-nominated comedy series about vloggers. Millennial documentarian Liam Williams (‘if Stacey Dooley won’t do it, he will’) investigates the increasingly strange and worrying world of vlogging.

He considers whether the commercially-driven, algorithm led nature of clickbait culture might actually be in some way bad for us as he considers the new extremes vloggers will go to to get attention, including cutting their tongues off and attacking dogs with flamethrowers. Liam learns about the complicated nature of ‘alogrithms’, which dictate the popularity of vlogs, and the people employed to control them, ‘algorithm whisperers’. Meanwhile, the controversy surrounding the awards continues to swell, with hapless vlogging agent James Wirm (Tim Key) struggling to control his controversial (and apparently very bigoted) new client DumpGhost (Tom Stourton). His life is made yet more complicated when Millipede (Emma Sidi), who up to now has opted to stay out of the debate, decides to take a stand. Liam also catches up with heartbroken pretty-boy vlogger Charlie South (Jonathan Pointing) who is attempting to win back his ex-girlfriend Millipede by embarking on a dangerous voyage...
