Industry: 5 butts, 4 cocks, and 3 chests of the top moneymakers at a banking CPS something in London

  


Industry is being pushed on MAX as the greatest television series of all time; it has a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes; and there's at least one gay character.  Should be an obvious must-watch, right?  

Maybe not.  I've tried getting into it twice, and get immensely bored after five minutes.  It's about money.  The inter-office squabbles of guys in suits making money by making money for other guys in suits, and trying to position into positions of higher power so they can make more money by making more money. 

 Shape without form, shade without colour, 

 Paralysed force, gesture without motion

It's not only boring, it's depressing.  You're in friggin' London. Go to the British Museum and see some art.  

Can we skip the money and just look at some naked guys?

1. David Jonsson, top photo, plays Gus Sackey, the main gay character. He majored in humanities before he sold his soul to Mammon.  Apparently he's closeted, not fitting in to the heterosexist money culture.  According to the Wikipedia, he's "assigned to the Investment Banking Division, IBD, and then the CPS desk.  I don't know what that is, either.




2. Will Tudor as Theo Tuck, the other gay character, an Eton graduate consigned to a lowly position as research analyst.

Guys, seriously, the British Museum has the Rosetta Stone.










3. Harry Lawley as Robert, from a working-class Welsh background, so he doesn't fit in with the upper-class Oxcam graduates working the money angle. There also might be some prejudice against the Welsh. He's on the CPS desk.

And it's open till 20:30 on Fridays

4. Ben Lloyd-Hughes as Greg, VP at the CPS desk.  Ok, I looked it up: CPS means Cross Product Sales, where you try to sell your bank customers things they don't need, like Wells Fargo:  "Oh, you want to open a checking account?  How about an auto loan and a credit card?"

How about the Victoria and Albert Museum?



5.Derek Riddell, here getting sexed up in The Book Club, as Clement, the CPS vice manager.

The St. Paul's Cathedral Choir is performing on Friday night.

More money-making cocks after the break



6. Nabhan Rizwan as Hari, one of the few ethnic minorities on staff, assigned to the IBS desk.  IBS may mean a system that allows "growth-focused financial institutions to make data-informed decisions and create next-generation products."

There's a Bollywood Festival at Camden Market.






7. Andrew Buchan as Felim, a "fund manager" and the banking service's biggest client.

Or Westminster Abbey?  Pay your respects to Richard II and Stephen Hawkings?


8. Sonny Poon Tip son of hedge fund manager Jay Duplass, the Series 2 gay character.

I don't know what a hedge fund is, but I know that you can see The Book of Mormon, Cabaret, and Magic Mike Live on the West End




9. Gay comedian Joel Kim Booster shows his dick in the sauna in Season 3.

At least they hook up a lot


10. Amir El-Nasry as Usman, assistant to Kaspar Zelden, main client of VP Clement, above.


Foyle's, on Charing Cross Road?  200,000 books on six floors. Maybe you can get a copy of Keats' poems.


11. Brandon Cook as Todd, ex-boyfriend of Harper, a woman who works the CPS desk.


Beauty is truth, truth beauty
That is all you know on Earth, and all you need to know
