Upcoming TV: The Devil, his whore, and the Survivors
In the first of what could become a regular thing here on Is There Food, I wanted to bring to your attention a few TV shows that might be of interest.
First off, and starting tonight, is Apparitions. Martin Shaw plays an exorcist in what could be a great new horror series from the BBC. It’s [...]

Dear Auntie Beeb: commission this as a series NOW!

Doctor Who: 2 – 2: Tooth and Claw
Episode two of the new series starts badly. The "Crouching Tiger meets 28 Days Later" (the director's words, not mine) intro sequence is terrible. Even though a sick little part of me is quite pleased that the "unique way in which the BBC is funded" (my license fee) has given birth to a set of [...]
