Documentary-maker Phil Tinline continues his series exploring how conspiracy theories and fictions work as stories, and what they claim to tell us about how power works.

In this final episode, Phil asks Whitney Phillips about 'deep memetic frames' - the ingrained narratives through which, she argues, we all see the world. How do these intersect with conspiracy theories, especially in times of political upheaval? And Dennis Kelly, creator of Channel 4's dystopic conspiracy drama Utopia, discusses the possibilities, and the pitfalls, of creating fictional conspiracies.

Series contributors include: Michael Butter, Bryan Cheyette, Paul Cobley, Karen Douglas, Sir Richard Evans, Beverly Gage, Pamela Hutchinson, Dennis Kelly, Rick Perlstein, Whitney Phillips, Vwani Roychowdhury, Tim Tangherlini
