Albino sitcoms

Interesting to read this in light of the recent Midsomer Murders affair, which culminated in a highly successful TV director ‘stepping down’ in the wake of remarks that some highly excitable individuals construed as ‘racist’. ‘Midsomer Murders’ was suddenly deemed to be too ‘English’ by the production company and ITV chiefs were shocked and appalled [...]

The future’s so bright…

After all, everything we’ve pissed money away on for the last 14 years is absolutely essential because society would break down totally if we didn’t keep [...]

What price celibacy?

How much longer can the Catholic Church maintain its stance on priesthood celibacy? And can it afford to for much longer?
