Bafta-nominated comedy series about vloggers. Millennial documentarian Liam Williams investigates the increasingly strange and worrying world of vlogging. In this episode, Liam finds out about The Likeys, a new awards ceremony designed to promote positivity in the vlogosphere. But when awards cohosts and superstar vloggers Millipede and Charlie South break up, James Wirm appoints the madly popular (and madly controversial) vlogger DumpGhost to replace a lovesick Charlie. This publicity-seeking move quickly backfires when DumpGhost makes an Islamophobic joke at the awards launch event and immediately turns the 'celebration of positivity' into a glittery, brightly coloured fiasco.
In this episode Liam explores the 'Social Change' category of The Likey awards and meets Dina Discourse, a PhD student and political vlogger with a growing profile. Liam meets her to

In this episode Liam explores the 'Social Change' category of The Likey awards and meets Dina Discourse, a PhD student and political vlogger with a growing profile. Liam meets her to find out why she's such a strong critic of the controversial DumpGhost as well as hearing her thoughts on capitalism, identity and what it's like to be woman with opinions online. Meanwhile, James Wirm has enlisted sensitivity trainer Hen to lead DumpGhost in a tutorial on intolerant behaviour, with mixed results.

BAFTA-nominated comedy series about vloggers. Millennial documentarian Liam Williams (‘if Stacey Dooley won’t do it, he will’) investigates the increasingly strange and worrying world of vlogging.
In this episode, Liam explores the ‘Most Views’ category of The Likeys, a new awards intended to celebrate positivity in the vlogging world. He considers whether the commercially-driven, algorithm led nature of clickbait culture might actually be in some way bad for us as he considers the new extremes vloggers will go to to get attention, including cutting their tongues off and attacking dogs with flamethrowers. Liam learns about the complicated nature of ‘alogrithms’, which dictate the popularity of vlogs, and the people employed to control them, ‘algorithm whisperers’.
Meanwhile, the controversy surrounding the awards continues to swell, with hapless vlogging agent James Wirm (Tim Key) struggling to control his controversial (and apparently very bigoted) new client DumpGhost (Tom Stourton). His life is made yet more complicated when Millipede (Emma Sidi), who up to now has opted to stay out of the debate, decides to take a stand.
Liam also catches up with heartbroken pretty-boy vlogger Charlie South (Jonathan Pointing) who is attempting to win back his ex-girlfriend Millipede by embarking on a dangerous voyage...

In this episode, Liam explores the ‘Kids’ category of The Likeys, a new awards intended to celebrate positivity in the vlogging world. He catches up with Millipede (Emma Sidi) who is trying to woo a new, younger demographic by writing a children’s story, with a little help from her ghost-writer or, as Millie insists on calling her, ‘Story Shepherd’. Millipede also introduces Liam to her tiny doppleganger, ‘Mini Millipede’, a small child whose parents have franchised the Millipede brand.
Later, Liam finds out about some of the new techniques for keeping children safe online when he visits a lab for testing online videos on animals. And, he investigates a suspicious company responsible for posting some distressing children’s cartoons online, and is forced to call in an algorithm whisperer!
Meanwhile, the row surrounding The Likeys is growing, as DumpGhost gains support from neo-fascists influencer Henry Bloyd Smith. And, finally, there’s some bad news following Charlie’s recent attempt to row across the Irish Sea…

In this episode, Liam explores the ‘Self Care’ category of The Likeys, a new awards intended to celebrate positivity in the vlogging world, which is lucky because the row surrounding the awards ceremony is becoming very stressful. Controversial vlogger DumpGhost (Tom Stourton) and neofascist influencer influencer Henry Bloyd Smith (George Fouracres) are encouraging their followers to take ‘radical action’ against The Likeys and its nominees and political vlogger Dina Discourse (Shivani Thussu) is the one bearing the brunt.
He catches up with an old adversary from series one, lifestyle and nutrition guru, Polly Sprong (Ellie White). Polly has taken a more relaxed approach to her work, following a difficult revelation but will she be interested in going for a pint with Liam?
Liam also meets ASMR vlogger, Tingle Maid (Natasia Demetriou), and becomes more than a little absorbed in her strange whispering world.
Finally he catches up with another vlogger from series one, Johnny Jackson, a reformed prank vlogger who is new educating young men with his anti-violence campaign ‘Let’s Punch Violence in the Head and Break it’s Jaw’ (#LPVINTHABITJ)

This time Liam goes to the ceremony of The Likeys awards. Controversial vlogger DumpGhost and neo-fascist influencer Henry Bloyd Smith have promised to deliver ‘radical action’ to the event and organiser James Wirm has to get his hands dirty when the security company supposed to be protecting the ceremony drops out. Millipede and her teenage agent Chelsea seem unconcerned, unlike Liam and political vlogger Dina Discourse who fear the consequences of the DumpGhost’s call to arms.
But when Liam arrives at the awards all seems well. The awards are handed out and everybody is excited for the ‘biggest selfie in the world ever’. But when DumpGhost and his ‘Ghost Army’ arrives it seems the party might be over...
