The Hoarder Next Door

9pm, Channel 4

The return of the show in which psychotherapist Stelios Kiosses helps adults tidy their rooms. First up is Alison, who has spent £40,000 on ladybird-themed accessories, until her house resembles an insect zoo. Elsewhere, schoolteacher Jo can't move for puppets and donkey costumes. "I can just about make it into bed," she admits. Like many of Channel 4's Barnum-with-a-heart shows, it comes complete with that tinkly incidental music that puts one in mind of a mischievous Tim Burton hiding behind a bush. Ali Catterall

Toughest Place to Be a … Taxi Driver; Shetland

11 March 2013 3:03 AM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »

Shetland on iPlayer

The title makes it sound like a "seriously" show: the kind of posturing, almost fact-free documentary presented – on what I can only presume is some kind of hardman-for-hire rota system – by either Danny Dyer or Ross Kemp. I call them "seriously" shows because, in my limited time as a viewer, the word has appeared in almost every other sentence, lending an ominous weight to otherwise banal pronouncements such as: "These young drug dealers are seriously unfriendly." Or: "This beef is seriously past its best-before date."

It would be fair to say then that I sat down to watch Toughest Place to Be a ... Taxi Driver (BBC2) – the »

Martine McCutcheon's still just loverly | Victoria Coren

16 February 2013 4:09 PM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

Yes, there's Love Actually and My Fair Lady but I will always love Martine for being a great soap star

In two separate newspaper stories, on Valentine's Day, I discovered that Love Actually had been voted the most romantic film ever and that Martine McCutcheon (one of its stars) had been declared bankrupt.

There seemed something glamorously old-fashioned about the contrast. One would assume that the "most romantic film ever" is something black and white from decades ago and can imagine reading that its leading lady is in dire straits today: wizened, skint, long forgotten by the studio machine that milked her youth, long widowed from her marriage to some ghastly "roistering" 1940s heart-throb who drank and screwed around to the delight of Hollywood.

Love Actually seems too recent for its star to have hit the skids, doesn't it? As is often the way with "best ever" polls, the list »
