So this is a safe space to admit that when I saw the title of this episode that (I wish I was joking) I jumped & yelped with joy? Probably not. I get that I'm an insufferable nerd but I'm not, nor will I ever be, as bad as Cecil....... I hope.

It is said that the French threatened to cut off the fingers of any archers captured, so waving those two fingers in a V at them to taunt them became widespread. Over time the gesture has become a general "fuck you". ( This applies to the hand held palm inwards. Palm out is Victory V or Peace - nice that pacifists and militant Antifa share a thing :) )
