Later in the short film, Grant's Prime Minister David delivered a speech at a press conference, alluding to the scene where he made a speech before Parliament members in the original movie. "And it's not just in politics that things are tough," said Grant's Prime Minister in the short film. "Usain Bolt has run his last Olympics, the 'Harry Potter' films are finished, Piers Morgan is still alive," he joked.

He later added, "But let's look at the other side of the coin. Metallica's new album is absolutely cracking. And on a deeper level, I'm optimistic. Wherever you see tragedy, you see bravery too."
