The League Against Tedium: "Cleanliness is next to godliness," you claim. Indeed. And the chip shop is next to the hairdresser's. It does not persuade me to visit either.

Featured review
Dada-ism on the BBC
Loved this show. This is a Dada performance art done on television. Wonderful stuff. But I like Dada and Surrealism and Futurism and all that, which this is a rather welcome addition to the anti-art family. The pilot, Cluub Zarathustra, reminds me of what a night at Cabaret Voltaire must have been like. Of course, like anything in this vein, it needs to be short-lived. Six was about all they could get out of it, and six is the right number of episodes to leave you wanting more before they wore out their welcome.
The performances were terrific, the characters splendid, but the writing could have been a bit sharper. Funny, but it needs a few more good laughs, insightful, but sometimes lacking real depth. I would love to see them all get back together again and do another round, now that they are older and wiser. Recommended.
May I also recommend in this vein the Armando Iannucci Show, Alexei Sayle's Stuff, the All-New Alexei Sayle Show and of course, Alexei Sayle's Merry-Go-Round.
