      Wait, how many 25 year olds in 2024 do you think remember the Mighty Boosh (2003-07), or Chicken Run (2000), or Who Shot Phil Mitchell (2001), or Caroline Quentin-era Jonathan Creek (1997-2000), or know people who were extras in the Harry Potter films (2001-11), or remember the Animals of Farthing Wood TV programme (1993-97), or spilled their drink on Miquita Oliver at a squat party in 2007 (2007)?

        I said 25-35, not 25.

        Mighty Boosh (2003-07)

        Lots

        Chicken Run (2000)

        Lots

        Who Shot Phil Mitchell (2001)

        Not many

        Caroline Quentin-era Jonathan Creek (1997-2000)

        A reasonable amount

        Or know people who were extras in the Harry Potter films (2001-11)

        A similar amount to people that are 5 years older. I.e. not many in the grand scheme of things.

        remember the Animals of Farthing Wood TV programme (1993-97)

        Not many

        or spilled their drink on Miquita Oliver at a squat party in 2007 (2007)?

        I don’t even know what that is and I’m 39. I doubt many people did in any age group.

        A lot of your comment seems to be based on the assumption that people only watch films/TV that’s just coming out now, and therefore no young adults will know anything that came from the 90s or early 2000s.
