So clearly Malcolm Tucker is a brilliant tv character, but on top of that, the whole thing's super enjoyable and delightfully, inventively profane and knowing, hitting its stride from the beginning and not faltering throughout. The deleted scenes are a nice bonus, too, just as good as the stuff that made the cut and for the most part basically supplementary to the episodes themselves rather than like for like swaps, so that they come to seem like they're actually further fleshing out what actually happened - a sense heightened by the quick-cutting, documentary style of the shooting.
