Press clippings
Murder Most Horrid (BBC2), no great favourite of mine, turned up trumps with the story of Daisy (Dawn French), a soft-hearted abbatoir worker, who is mistaken for an executioner in South America. For reasons too curly to disentangle, she executes the entire government by mistake. Live on TV. This, as you might anticipate, is a roaring ratings success. As Daisy says "There hasn't been anything worth watching on telly recently."
