TV review: Staged; The Full Monty; Queen Of Oz

Staged: Tennant is still magnificently annoying, a human bluebottle of a man, while grumpy Sheen makes Eeyore look like Bruno Tonioli.

Queen Of Oz: I was reminded of one of Tate's genuinely funny creations, dear old Nana, and wondered what she would make of this. "You spent my licence fee on this load of old rubbish? What a ******* liberty!"

The Full Monty: Not too shabby. On the sugary side, there is an actual shaggy dog and Sheffield is suspiciously sunny for much of the time.
