The slightly perplexing new tradition of ‘Schoolies week’ (why, in many generations of Ramsay St teens has this never been mentioned before?) continues in Neighbours this week, and Donna, fed up of Ringo being a bit of a dick who doesn’t have any purpose whatsoever on the show right now, gets friendly with this new [...]

The wine’s hopefully been mulled, the chestnuts are roasting… or at the very least you’ve unscrewed a bottle of Lambrini and opened a box of Celebrations. So what televsisual treats are there to see you through this festive season?

If you have been watching Five lately, you will have noticed some trailers telling us that ’someone we love will die’ in Neighbours very soon. If you have also been following recent episodes where there has been much mention of Lucas working on a certain vehicle, you will have no doubt picked up on [...]

For those of us who have been following the show since the 1980s, the recent storyline about Paul’s secret half-sister Jill Ramsay in Neighbours and the introduction of a new Ramsay family group (Kate, Harry and Sophie) may have been the equivalent of Doctor Who referencing the likes of The Brigadier and the Macra – [...]

Something is very wrong on The Hotel Inspector this series. It’s not Alex Polizzi; quite the contrary, she’s really settled into the role now and is obviously having a ball wandering around the struggling businesses and pointing out just how incompetent the current proprietors are. It’s not the hoteliers-of-the-week either, they’re the usual assortment [...]

This week’s telly has seen some of the most bonkers scenes for ages, and yet there’s no TV Burp to bring them to our attention. So for those of you who may have missed them, here are some of this week’s more ridiculous moments in telly:

Another month, another round-up of who our forum users are loving and hating in soapland…
The list excludes stalwarts such as Warren and Calvin (Hollyoaks), Michelle (Coronation Street) and Melody (Home and Away), because I’m sick of naming them every month and them still being here. Rest assured, though, they’re still hated round these [...]

A few things that might be of interest today…
In Neighbours, the mystery over which feckless teen couple are going to have a baby deepens, as does the mystery of why nobody in soap land has heard of contraceptives (apart from Donna, apparently, and only because she forgot to take them). This afternoon, Harry Hill drops [...]

As Ruth pointed out yesterday, the telly is now returning to a degree of normalcy, at least until Wednesday, but I for one am determined to drag out this selection box mullarkey at least until then, if only to prolong that sense of Christmas spirit and goodwill to all.
