FirstPlay 012: Full Contents

I was watching with a sense of crushing inevitability as Germany guaranteed we meet them next, so this is a bit later than usual.  It is a similar feeling of certainty that accompanies the viewing of FirstPlay each week as the hope of seeing something new and exciting gives way to the familiar feeling of disappointment.  That disappointment is akin to what you would feel if having just brewed yourself a cup of tea you opened the packet of Digestives to find that you have managed to buy the one packet the shelf-stacker dropped and that there is not one decent dunk-worthy fragment left intact.
