Product placement
BBC: it merely APPEARS - a corner watermark, removing it would not change what happens in the video.
KRAPOPOLIS: it merely APPEARS - a title card, removing it would not change what happens in the video.
iPLAYER: it ACTS - it is a platform to watch the show, removing it would not change what happens in the video.
