Wife 'murdered husband' after row over TV Burp

A woman stabbed her husband to death after a row about what to watch on TV, a court has been told. Leonora Sinclair wanted to see Harry Hill while her husband Lloyd Sinclair, 73, wanted to watch football.

This week saw the return of what has been speculated by many to be the final series of TV Burp to be hosted by Harry Hill. My fingers are crossed that isn't the case.

Hill, after so many years in charge of the show, is still able to find the tiniest aspects of any show and make a joke out of it, keeping it going on and on, forming a centrepiece that you want to return to constantly; whether it be his half-time fights, the "TV Highlight of the Week" or "Poetry Corner".

In the first episode of this series, the main recurring gag was about a man called Stephen on Channel 4's [o]Coach Trip[/i], who seemed to be so emotionless that Hill claimed there was another man called Ian trapped inside him. However, my favourite moment in this week's show was from There's No Taste Like Home in which Hill was constantly trying to figure out who had really made Nanny Maud's rabbit pie.

TV Burp is without doubt one of the best shows on ITV. It is the most successful mainstream comedy of modern times - popular with audiences and critics - winning more awards than My Family could ever had dreamt of.

However, would the format survive without Harry Hill? I doubt it.

Word of mouth is growing: This Is Jinsy doubled its audience in its second week. If you're coming in now, you've hit upon the best episode yet.

It's snowing, which is bad for shorts-wearer Arbiter Maven (Justin Chubb) even before he has to trek across country with his fearsome former teacher - a delicious guest turn from Simon Callow. Nigel Planer is equally fantastic as a madman who lives in a miniature chalet, while Harry Hill returns, in that figure-hugging coral skirt, as sensual law enforcer Joon Boolay.

Amid the nonstop gags, Chubb and co-creator Chris Bran always steal the show with their songs. Tonight they're dusty geriatrics Retch and Hoik, authors of the rousing march Put in Your Teeth. Plus, the ever-present, eight-strong Island Singers - Chubb and Bran in four different wigs and frocks, superimposed next to each other - offer thoughtful comment on the futility of working life.
