"Your house smells like dawg!"

TERRACOTTA! Ann Maurice: Interior Rivalry, Five, 9.00pm

First of all: anyone who spotted that the title came from that scene in Coronation Street where Shelley was doing her Ann Maurice impression, well done. Give yourself a cookie. Internet-variety or biscuit-variety, we don't mind. Go crazy.

Second of all: a new show with Ann Maurice in it - hurrah! This one's another The Apprentice-style search for a worthy successor to Ms. Maurice (why were we not informed about this? Does the position come with special Alistair Appleton-related privileges? WE MUST BE TOLD.) - for what purpose, we're not sure. We hope she's not thinking of retiring. Anyway, you can probably imagine how it's going to work - lots of people, some very suitable, others not so. A series of tests designed to test their overall suitably, unsuitable contestants gradually evicted, etc. Apparently somebody makes Ann cry this week, which we're very intrigued about.

Final note: if Sarah Beeny does a similar show, please ensure we know about it. We'd give anything to be apprenticed to the Beeny.

I'm loving Annn's new sex-vamped image! And who else could have brought Jay Aston back onto our screens?

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.
