Opening at "Highgate Cemetery"? Really? Weird to make all the effort of actually shooting in London and still gently caress it up like that.

Catzilla posted:Although I did wonder which neighbour heard the gunshot, considering he lived in a manor house on a country estate. With the exception of the very last scene at Paddington, I think there was a fairly significant "WTF?" for every location shot in the whole episode for anyone who knows London. That said, I'm aware that if you know London that well you're probably on the wrong continent to be in the show's target audience, and the actual story of the episode was pretty good. (My other complaint is that Sean Pertwee sounded more like his dad here than in anything else I've seen in him, specifically his dad when he was playing Spotty in SuperTed)

Aphrodite posted:They didn't exactly cover why P=NP would break security, but I guess the logic is that if a computer can verify encryption (which it has to do to read encrypted files) in a short time, which they do, then it can also solve/break that encryption in that same short time with the proper equation? The bit which they glossed over but I suppose explains the killing was that just proving P=NP won't (necessarily) break all encryption - there's no guarantee that the proof will provide a method to solve NP problems fast and efficiently. P=NP proof would spur people to research that though, and THAT would be the end of PKI (there are types of encryption we know of that won't be affected though)
