  • Visual link from V's house to Evey's house with the television playing the same radical hate message.
  • Parallel narrative as Evey and V are both getting prepared for very different events.
  • Visual link as both Evey and V turn off the television at the same time.
  • Visual link as they Evey and V both look at the TV at the same time.
  • Visual link when they both put their shoes on at the same time.
  • Camera zooms in on television as presenter's voice gets angrier.
