That's for 2015, obviously, but it would be interesting to see how it's worked out for 2017. A bit more proportional, I think, given that UKIP's geographically-dispersed vote has disappeared. The Tories are a little over-represented, Labour are a little under-represented, and SNP probably still the main beneficiary of the disproportionality.
I used those videos for teaching electoral systems to my Politics class, they're great.
