It's been a while since I saw it, but while it trumpeted topicality as its USP, it really worked on the basis of writing a show and then squeezing a handful of topical references in at the last minute which gave it the stability of a regularly produced show and should mean that it doesn't date too badly.

You lucky sunshine!
I'm really rather jealous, which isn't like me at all.

Note to self: When launching a Citrix RDP session, it must be launched from the primary monitor! Doing otherwise will only cause unnecessary grief and swearing as the connection dialog vanishes and nothing happens! That's 30 minutes I'll never get back!

For a while I was using a third-party tool that remembered that it was on my second monitor. So when I tried to use it without a second monitor...
Alas.

I'm pretty sure that's just default behavior for windows...It seems to always want to send windows to orphaned monitors.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.
