I'm not sure whether the recent BBC story about the inventors of the Beeb reuniting at the Science Museum was an inspiration to the producers this week's episode of the consumer protection programme Watchdog. The Beeb makes an unlikely appearance in a story about fraudulent online shops, with a green-screen MODE 7 being used for the graphics. I seriously considered giving this an entry at Starring the Computer, but I think it's probably best if I stick to fictional features there. It was too good to let it pass completely, though, so I'm recording it here.
