brisket

Tonight BBC2 11.45
Written and starring Julia Davis and Jessica Hynes (used to be Stevenson.)
A preview I have read says we are used to some Julia Davis stuff being "dark", but that
this is far darker.
This has been placed in what is known as a `graveyard slot`.
A director of the production company says this is because of its content.
So if you are looking for some strong, testing humour, this might be the place.
But a preview I have read says "..it unravels slowly, and then very quickly....exceptionally brutal.
It's also brilliant."
Sounds as if it is not everyone's cup of tea, but I'll give it a go.

but will I need my sequins...

Haha Baz. Not today.
Not everyone can get away with sequins. But you....well....startling.

As for the programme. I'm not sure. Certainly grim. But (on a strange level) some funny plotting. Nice performances.
What annoys me so much is the hand-held wobbling camera stuff. Why on earth can't they have a fixed camera?

Ah, good idea, Scotty.

I wasn't as 'dark' as I was expecting, tbh.

Not sure what that says about me.....
