Couch Potato column – Saturday, 22 December
November 29, 2012, 5.58am, a random ITV newscaster: “Now here’s the red-top tabloids with, frankly, non-stories from the Australian jungle on their front pages, about I’m A Celebrity.” December 19, 2012, 1.48pm, ITV newscaster Geraint Vincent: “A swimmer in Australia … Continue reading

Couch Potato column – Saturday, 27 October

Couch Potato column – Saturday, 13 October
Poor old Lisa Riley, I thought. There she was, last Saturday night, bemoaning the fact she’s become typecast playing “mingers” (a mystery, for sure), only to end up at the BBC ballroom in what looked unmistakably like the Ann Widdecombe … Continue reading

Christmas TV review
Christmas Day. A time for giving, for celebrating the birth of Cliff Richard, and the annual worship of a hapless inventor made of Plasticine and his loyal Aardman dog. Most of all, though, it’s a time for the family to … Continue reading

Adam Postans’ weekly Couch Potato column – Friday, 25 November
BBC1’s Young Apprentice candidates were directing youth-oriented TV adverts on Monday, making teenagers do ridiculous things you’d never see in the real world.

Adam Postans’ Couch Potato column – Friday, 18 November
My assessment of BBC2’s fluffy new overacted 1960s-set airline drama. Pan Am-dram. ===================================================== BBC1 Young Apprentice candidate James McCullagh: “People always tell me I’m 17 going on 67.” Which is fine.

Adam Postans’ weekly TV column – Saturday, 8 October
So, The Doctor didn’t die after all in Saturday’s Doctor Who finale, it was just a robot pretending to be him. Isn’t that a relief/utter waste of nine-and-three-quarter hours I’ll never get back*. *delete as appropriate. ========================================================= Big Brother update. … Continue reading
