TV Review | Ed Williamson | 8th April 2016

A bit of gratuitous swearing

TV Video | Ed Williamson | 1st July 2012

Thanks to Netflix, I've been getting reacquainted with A Bit of Fry and Laurie. I would've been about ten when I first saw this episode. Lax parenting.

Parliament of House: part three

TV Feature | Ed Williamson, Matt Looker | 28th May 2012

Who knew we'd actually predict correctly a fair chunk of the House series finale? Not all those people who always called us directionless geeks who watch too much TV, that's for sure. Ha! The fools. Join us for part three as we say goodbye to the doctor for good.

Parliament of House: part one

TV Feature | Ed Williamson, Matt Looker | 23rd May 2012

House: it's been around for eight years, and while no one ever speaks about it in the same terms as the 'worthier' US output, there are at least two of us who would rank it among our favourite shows of all time.
