The scenario had the PM and Royal Family a casualty of the spread. I also watched a new movie called <em>Right At Your Door</em> about dirty bombs going off in LA. It was easily forgettable, but by no means the worst in its genre. How different would a city like Brisbane or Sydney react when compared to LA? It's interesting stuff think about. A doco on sarin gas attacks was also on. Musta been the weekend for it eh. An episode of Spooks I watched on the weekend was about an emergency drill for dirty bombs going off across the UK.
