Press
It is tough to predict what will work on TV. Exhibit A: the third series of this show, in which minor celebs play old-school video games against each other. Catnip for the hidden hordes of the callus-thumbed, but a little more trying for the casual. Tonight: Gregg Wallace (strategy) v Jodie Kidd (reflexes).

The video game comedy returns Romans, worm-like humans, and some accidental racism.
