Wednesday's Low Points

The schlock you won't want to miss today
» Gentle Ben: Black Gold 1pm and 4am, Hallmark ... A Gentle Ben film? Starring Dean Caine from Lois and Clark? Why were we not informed sooner? This piece of TV movie brilliance gets three stars in our own tv guide, but we're not exactly sure how many stars the rating system goes up to, so you'll have to take your chances.
» TOTP2 6.50pm, BBC2 ... Enjoy some retro Bananarama with a classic performance of Cruel Summer.
» George and Mildred 7.30pm, Granada Plus ... We confidently predict that at least one lowculture reader will whoop with delight at this recommendation. Brian Murphy and Yootha (no, really) Joyce star as the 70s sitcom couple who hated each others' guts.

About Us

According to Marxist theory, cultural forms such as opera, classical music and the literary works of Shakespeare all fall under the heading of high culture. Low culture refers to a wide variety of cultural themes that are characterised by their consumption by the masses. We might not be Marxists, but we do know we loved Footballers Wives. If you do too, you'll know what this is all about.
