Hi gang,
Just a quick notelette to let you know that the Screenwipe Review of the Year isn't on Tuesday (i.e. today). No. Just to confuse you, and to minimise the risk of anyone seeing it, it's scheduled for 24th December -- Christmas Eve innit -- at 10.00pm on BBC4, directly opposite the Gavin and Stacey Christmas Special which will be slurping up viewers on BBC1. Hooray!
It's also repeated on BBC4 on 29th Dec at 10.50pm, New Year's Eve at five to midnight (which is nice), and on -- wow! -- BBC2 (y'know, *proper* telly) on the 2nd Jan at 11.45pm. So there's no excuse for missing it, unless you die five minutes after reading these words, in which case I'm truly sorry and I hope it isn't painful.
I'm back on BBC4 in 2009 with a new spin-off thingy and possibly a one-off thing about (whisper) videogames.
In other news, Channel 4 will be showing Dead Set in early January, in three hour-long chunks. What's nice about that is they've got an HD channel, haven't they? Which means if you're a ponce with a poncey HD TV and a poncey HD receiver, you should be able to watch all that blood sloshing around in pin-sharp puke-o-vision.
That's all. Oh, and Merry Christmas, if you pay attention to that sort of thing.
