Sacha Baron Cohen’s audacious series concludes. It has been a mixed bag – it would be a jaded viewer who did not gasp at the man’s chutzpah – but the value of the targets has been variable. Still, he has hit the mark often enough to render the thing worthwhile. Hopefully he has saved some big beasts for this finale. Phil Harrison
