Here we go again?

I see that Michael Grade, the erstwhile pornographer in chief of Channel 4 (according to the Daily Mail, at any rate), and one time Director of Programmes at the BBC is back there as chairman.

Grade is the man who axed Doctor Who in 1989.

Bets on the new series never seeing the light of day?

Challenging received wisdom

Or at least hoping to.

A documentary film maker in the US is to eat nothing but McDonald's over the counter food for the whole of April and lose weight, by making informed and sensible menu choices. The idea is to highlight the role of personal responsibility in the obesity issue, rather than just shift the blame to the Big Corporations. It's not as if there aren't enough points of contention with them on other issues...

This will bear keeping an eye on, if you're as fed up as I am with the health Nazis and nannyism from the Government.

I was going to do some more writing, but BBC1 is showing the Concert for George.

So that's what I'm doing: just kicking back and enjoying that.

Sue me.
