CALAMITY! Neighbours, Five, 1.45pm, 5.30pm, 5.10 am; Five Life, 7.00pmWe are pleased to see that the writers and producers of Neighbours take the advice of lowculture seriously. We refer you back to December 10, 2007, when we gave them a list of tips to make the show better. Our tips included:» Axe Ned (we don’t [...]
SIBLINGS! Brothers and Sisters, E4, 11.00pm There’s a bit of an interesting disconnect in the E4 marketing department at the moment, or so it seems to us.
