News

Every weekday (that I'm around and it's not a holiday) before 9am, I round up the latest media news from around the world. I cover film, art, theatre, TV and other media, although mainly TV and film. Rumours and trade news as well as consumer news all get a look in.

The archives are available online; you can also subscribe via RSS or Bloglines for instant updates, or if you prefer, receive an email between 9am and 11am each day containing the latest update.

Asides

  • Had I been paying proper attention, I'd have noticed that Stephen Moyer, who plays the seemingly friendly vampire in True Blood, also played the seemingly friendly vampire best pal of Jack Davenport in Ultraviolet

  • Don't forget the Sky+ competition. Deadline for entries is Monday 21st July 2008

  • Lab Rats: BBC2, Thursdays, 9.30pm. Laughter count: a few, I guess. Not awful, not bad for a first episode, but needs some work. And it does have both Chris Addison and Geoff McGivern in it.
