Shakespeare & Hathaway review

Starring Mark Benton and Jo Joyner, the first of the 10-part series was well acted, nicely written - with decent jokes - and beautifully shot around Stratford.

Fans of Midsomer Murders will settle in straight away and, with so many grim, grinding crime dramas clogging up the evening schedules, it's worth setting the recorder for this one.

Rewind: Vic and Bob's "Catterick" revisited

From Big Night Out and sketch shows in the 1990s, to Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) in the 2000s and House of Fools in more recent years - as well as their anarchic quiz show Shooting Stars - Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer are one of the UK's most successful comedy double acts. But Catterick has been largely forgotten. As the pair announce more dates for their Poignant Moments tour, celebrating 25 years since they started performing together, we revisit their underrated 2004 comedy-drama...
