In the third and final exclusive from the Sun, there's a blurb that features an Easter egg about season one's "Fifteen Million Merits," starring Daniel Kaluuya. The headline reads "15 Million Talent Team," and goes on to say that "Hot Shots talent show to start a new series in the beginning of 1985. If you think you have what it takes, see Page 10 for details." Hot Shots goes on to become a key part of a dystopian set-up where people can only escape their indentured servitude by competing — and winning — the reality show of the same name.
