Through the show Trent gives various examples of disturbing ways that twisted people (e.g. Katie Hopkins) are expressing themselves on social media, or bizarre videos that children are watching (cue a pretty weird, eerie, badly CGI-animated cartoon about not stealing food) to people getting upset at a bakery not selling a cake for a gay event and people getting upset at those people.
It's a thrilling ride, with some tremendous twists and turns. Trent can pull the rug from under our feet at times and his brash, unforgiving style ramps up the energy of the show. He even has some props that don't leave much to the imagination.
He's a man with a strong presence, a cynical view of the world and a darn bolshie way of keeping the audience engrossed in his antics. I'm not sure if he's someone to watch year after year, but certainly as a one-off it was eye-opening stuff.
