| 1:00.3 | Welcome to Four Finger Discount, with this work, we're here to review an absolute stinker of a Simpsons episode. |
| 1:01.6 | It's the colour yellow, I'm Dando. |

The colour was not yellow. The colour was very vibrant. I bought a, for those of you playing at home, a Samsung 83 inch S95F OLED TV. Oh my God. The lovely Louise recently bought a new TV, new Samsung. This first thing she said to me was like, it's as thin as a postcard. Yeah, it's very thin, yeah. |
