Series 4, Episode 4 - It's All In The Mind

George is asked by the Ultron Council to write a progress report on humanity. All seems to be going well (apart from the French George is pleased with what he finds), until his mind-reading powers reveal the true nature of human thought.

Further details

George is disgusted at human beings' capacity for deception and wicked behaviour.The unpleasant thoughts of Stanley, Ella and Mrs Raven in particular leave George in a state of despair. George's sense of honesty forces him to write a damning report and the Ultron Council condemns the human race to death by laser. Only Janet can save the world by giving her sanctimonious husband a tongue-lashing.
