Little Miss Perfect

CLASSY! Asbo Teen To Beauty Queen, Five, 8.00pm

Okay, we admit it: this would be another of those occasions where we know next-to-nothing about the show we're recommending, but felt that the title alone was enough to give it a mention on the front page. Seriously: a pat on the back for whoever came up with that one, because it's absolutely inspired.

It is at times like this that the work of the listings writers across the UK are utterly invaluable to us, and we thank them immensely. Perhaps we'll buy them something lovely for Christmas. Anyway, from what we can gather, a bunch of Vicky Pollard-types (who I'm sure have hearts of gold and everything, so don't e-mail me: I'm not mocking) are given the chance to become poised and gracious young women, Ladette To Lady-style, only in this case the ultimate goal is not to fit in at one of those swanky Sloaney lunches where everyone eats asparagus, but to represent England in the Miss Teen International Pageant in the USA. And if you're competing against Denise Richards, we advise you to tread very carefully.

We actually think this sounds quite awesome. It's the sort of thing we've seen a gazillion times before of course, but it hasn't lost its appeal for us yet. We're shallow in that way.

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.
