I have watched the excellent video of "1990". In line with that subject is a book "Dominion" by C. J. Samson I don't know if it was made into a TV series etc but it would have made a great one. Also on this subject line is the movie/picture "V for Vendetta".

People are just watching too many Hollywood movies/pictures?
