"King of PowerPoint comedy" isn't a viciously contested mantle, but Gorman deserves praise for having mastered his craft. His fourth series of lectures begins with a look at "extractor fans", people so keen to project expertise, they suck the joy out of the thing they like. He has a pleasing streak of curmudgeon, and is as skilled with a comic callback as he is with his slides: his climactic anecdote about an online quiz is sublime.
