The only good kind of clipshow

SCRUTINY! Harry Hill's TV Burp, ITV2, 11.00pm

We love Harry Hill, but what we love slightly less is the timeslot in which TV Burp originally transmits. 5.30pm on a Saturday is never good for us; either we're out, or if we're in, we just don't expect there to be anything on TV beyond sports highlights and old films, so inevitably we utterly forget to watch it. Admittedly 11pm on a Tuesday still isn't brilliant (dear ITV: please give this show a primetime slot, because it's wonderful), but it might suit some people slightly better, so we thought the least we could do would be to draw attention to it.

Due to the fact that we seldom if ever remember to watch it on Saturdays, we can't really say much about what, specifically, is likely to feature in this week's edition, but we did spot the other day that Harry likes to talk about Jo from The Apprentice (and frankly, who doesn't) and some bizarre ITV2 show about Australian princess wannabes featuring Paul Burrell. And if all else fails, there's always the time-honoured deep examination of the facial expression of Marlon from Emmerdale.

(By the way, Blogger is not our friend today and refuses to let us post a picture to accompany this article. Sorry about that.)

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.
