Watching...


The Wire - Season 5
Quite simply the greatest TV programme of all time. Genius. The fifth and final season of 'The Wire' centers on the media's role in addressing - or failing to address - the fundamental political, economic and social realities depicted over the course of the series, while also resolving storylines of the numerous characters woven throughout the narrative arc of the show.



Dexter - Season 2
Michael C. Hall (Six Feet Under) stars as a like-able Miami police forensics expert moonlighting as a serial killer of criminals who he believes have escaped justice. The 2nd Season hasn't gripped me as much as the 1st season, but still beats pretty much anything else on TV at the moment (excluding The Wire of course!). The last episode I watched starred Jaime Murray from BBC1's Hustle. Which was nice!

Reading...


A lovely tongue-in-cheek memoir...a wonderful antidote to all those tales of childhood woe pouring from the presses.
