IT WAS THE American author Harper Lee who wrote “You can choose your friends but you sure can’t choose your family”. And who hasn’t, either now or in the past, wondered if we could only swap kith for kin? Nowhere are blood ties to the less admirable aspects of ourselves more apparent – and less avoidable – than in a family tree. This week Who Do You Think You Are? returns to BBC1 and first in the genealogists’ sights is Jodie Whittaker. The programme takes Whittaker, best known for playing the time-travelling Doctor, on an adventure into her family’s past. Brought up in Yorkshire in the 1980s, where the politics of the miners’ strike were hard to avoid, Whittaker was clear whose side she was on. So when she discovered…

This is a national scandal

HOUSES AND THE housing industry are big news right now. Whether it’s homes of the stately variety and the National Trust’s decision to publish a report into historic connections between its properties and colonialism and slavery, or the focus Extinction Rebellion has brought to the need for carbon reduction by protesting outside the Ministry of Housing. Both issues are big deals to me because of my television career. I’ve just made National Trust Unlocked for Channel 4 and a few people have unfollowed me on social media because of the links some properties have to colonialism and slavery – they don’t think I should be visiting them. For the record, I think racism anywhere must be cracked down upon, and hard, and I also believe people should be allowed to visit properties…

FROM THE RT ARCHIVE… 12—18 OCTOBER 1996

WHAT WE WATCHED Chat show host Clive Anderson had switched from Channel 4 to BBC1 for his latest series, All Talk on Sundays, and RT revealed how past guests had coped with a man who had the gift of the gab — and the gag. “Clive isn’t a host who believes in meeting his guests beforehand,” said Maureen Lipman. “The second time I went on, I was unaccountably nervous and my tongue grew two feet and stuck to the roof of my mouth.” Comedian Sean Hughes commented that Anderson did like to dominate proceedings: “He does try to take over a bit and they do edit for him — I was surprised not to see some of the things I’d slagged him off about in the final version.” WHAT YOU SAID BBC1’s big-budget…

Taskmaster Thursday 9.00pm Channel 4 ‘There’s a simmering contempt that people seem to enjoy!’GREG DAVIES GREG DAVIES HAS always been big in comedy. He’s 6ft 8in. Yet on Taskmaster, the comedian seems bigger still, lording it over not only the contestants on the daft panel show cum parlour game, but also Alex Horne – the sidekick host who Davies offhandedly christened “Little Alex Horne” in an early series. The name stuck and has become a running gag at the top of each episode. It’s an ironic nickname (Horne is 6ft 2in) yet sums up why Taskmaster is one of TV’s most refreshing comedies. It’s nonsensical, silly and different from anything else on TV: comedians, such as Frank Skinner, Richard Osman, Sally Phillips, Mel Giedroyc and Bob Mortimer, flounder as they attempt to win…

Who Do You Think You Are? Monday 9.00pm BBC1 JODIE WHITTAKER IS famously private, something of a reluctant celebrity and a virtuoso secret keeper. She managed, somehow, not to shout out loud to anyone who’d listen when she was cast as the 13th Doctor Who back in 2017 and waited, impatiently, for the news to be broken to the rest of the world. A few years earlier, she was similarly silent about the finale of the first series of Broadchurch, in which the killer of her on-screen son was revealed to nine million shocked viewers. Whittaker, 38, shuns social media and avoids, where possible, talking about her husband and child. She married Christian Contreras in 2008, having met him when they were both studying at London’s prestigious Guildhall School of Music and…

A bit closer to home, her paternal grandfather was an important figure in medical care in south Wales. DAVID WALLIAMS A First World War soldier who suffered post-traumatic stress and became an artist, and a blind travelling showman who ran fairground attractions with his family both feature in the family tree of the writer and comedian.

‘I never intended it to be on TV’

Abigail’s Party: Play for Today Wednesday 9.00pm BBC4 WATCHED BY AS MANY as 16 million people on one of its numerous repeats during the past five decades, Abigail’s Party ranks among the most-loved television dramas. It charts high in polls of TV’s greatest shows and is being shown again this week to mark the 50th birthday of the Play for Today strand (BBC1, 1970–84), where it first appeared in 1977. However, some are less keen on the work, including, remarkably, its writer-director Mike Leigh. And that’s because this comedy of social climbing in 1970s Essex, in which Beverly (played by Alison Steadman, to whom Leigh was then married) hosts a drinks party for three neighbours, which spirals into drunkenness, lechery, rivalry, insult and tragedy, was created as a stage play. “I have no…

Why the BBC must never bring back Play for Today

As a television critic there’s one sentence I probably hear more than any other: “I wish the BBC would bring back Play for Today.” Ah yes, Play for Today, which this week celebrates the 50th anniversary of its first broadcast with a BBC4 documentary and repeats of some of its best-known episodes, notably Abigail’s Party. Even though it started in 1970 and ended in 1984, Play for Today still exerts a strong hold over the imaginations of many television viewers and is routinely held up as a beacon of excellence. But could Play for Today exist in today’s television landscape? I doubt it. In a boxset-hungry world, there’s no room for a weekly one-hit piece of drama. “Where’s the rest of it? Where are the other episodes?” would come the cry. If…

‘It’s not about blame’

Enslaved with Samuel L Jackson Sunday 9.00pm, 10.00pm BBC2 JOURNALIST, BROADCASTER AND race activist Afua Hirsch has a tangled history with slavery. An outspoken critic of Britain’s “fragility” in dealing with the uncomfortable legacy of the slave trade, she discovered while doing family research that her own ancestral line goes back – yes, you’ve guessed it – to a Dutch trader who sold enslaved Africans. “It’s a bit complicated for me,” she tells Samuel L Jackson as they stare out to sea from a slave fort in Elmina, Ghana, where the actor’s forebears may well have been shipped out from, and where Hirsch’s grandfather six times removed was based. Just how complicated we’ll discover shortly. Jackson is on a journey of his own. First to find his ancestral roots – they turn out…

‘Let me show you what a woman can do’

Inside Museums Thursday 7.00pm BBC4 IN THE LAST February days before Covid-19 descended on northern Italy, a quiet ceremony took place at the Palazzo Frescobaldi in Florence, ancient home of the noble Frescobaldi family. In front of the Marchesa, her attendants, a professor and National Gallery curator Letizia Treves, gloved assistants placed a series of 400-year-old vellum and ink letters on a baize table. These remarkable survivors from the early 17th century, written in the hand of the Baroqueera painter Artemisia Gentileschi, are one half of an intensely personal, often erotic, correspondence with her lover, the nobleman Francesco Maria Maringhi. Maringhi had served the house of Frescobaldi and, after his death, the letters had lain in the family archives for four centuries, until they were accidentally discovered in 2011. “Someone was looking for…

There would be myriad twists before the project could be completed, with the whales moved into their final home just last month. It was always going to be a ground-breaking achievement, involving extraordinary care and expertise. But no one involved envisaged the obstacles in their way.

Kane’s cutting edge

THE WORD MEANS, according to my Shorter Oxford, “of or pertaining to the sickbed”. In football it’s used for the most important concept in the game. The word is “clinical”. England are lucky to have, in their captain, Harry Kane, a man who exemplifies that quality. As we move into another round of matches in the Uefa Nations League, with all the home nations in action, the importance of being clinical becomes clear. A clinical team and, especially, a clinical player will demonstrate a certain excited calmness – particularly in front of goal. Perhaps the idea behind the use of this word is surgery. A surgeon must be dispassionate and precise in performing invasive procedures. A footballer who can deliver goals, calmly, relentlessly and ruthlessly, amid the stress of a match, is…

When the $4.5 million budget “woke” horror film passed $100 million at the domestic US box office after three weeks, he was heralded as the first black writer-director to do so with a debut. When the film’s gross overtook Straight Outta Compton by F Gary Gray, Get Out became the highest-grossing film by a black director ever. And at the Oscars in 2018, where Get Out accrued four nominations, Peele’s win for original screenplay made him the first black nominee to do so.

EMBRACE THE DARK SIDE

SOME ACTORS DON’T mind watching themselves on screen, but others simply can’t stomach it. Amanda Burton is one of those who swiftly changes channel if Peak Practice, Silent Witness or Waterloo Road pops up on her TV. While she’s proud of the tough, no-nonsense characters that she’s brought to life, she’s also a perfectionist. Asked if she’s hard on herself, Burton jumps in halfway through the question. “Oh, yes! I’m terrible. I can’t bear to watch anything back. Even now after a day’s filming I think, ‘I could have done this’, or ‘I missed a beat’.” She pauses. “I can’t keep beating myself up. Maybe as I get older, I’ll learn to let things go.” And Burton is, it seems, taking her own advice pretty seriously; just the previous evening, while at…

GOSH, IT’S ALL SO strange… shop assistants wearing visors as if they’re about to do a bit of spot-welding, people staffing tills sitting in see-through cubes like East German border guards. During a recent trip to the countryside I was at such a loss as to how to attract the attention of one young art-gallery worker, absorbed in her laptop at the pay-point, that I had to knock on the window of her Perspex house like a minor Dickens character asking for gruel. Then I had to wave my preposterously pretentious and overpriced postcards in front of her so she wouldn’t have to make contact. Poor love, what a way to spend her days. It’s not right, is it, having to go against every human inclination to chat and be cheery (yes, dear…

PICK OF THE DAY Britain’s Got Talent Final 7.30pm ITV ENTERTAINMENT It’s been a funny old series of Britain’s Got Talent. Already blighted by being postponed from the spring, the semi-finals threw up unexpected controversy. Diversity’s Black Lives Matter-themed performance in week one attracted more than 20,000 complaints, making it the most complained about TV moment from the past ten years. Then 200-odd viewers took umbrage with Amanda Holden’s low-cut dress, also making their feelings known to Ofcom. The ports of calm in this storm are Ant and Dec, who get the chance to be back on top form tonight owing to the Britain’s Got Talent final being live. Yes, live! They’ll be presiding as the five finalists the judges put through, including magician Magical Bones and comedians Jon Courtenay and Steve Royle, will…

Theirs is often regarded as one of the superior Holmes and Watson partnerships. It’s certainly a world away from the following… ▪ Peter Cook and Dudley Moore’s spoof of The Hound of the Baskervilles (1978) is widely considered a disaster. ▪ Roger Moore was miscast in 1978 TV movie Sherlock Holmes in New York. He’s far too suave, though co-star Patrick Macnee fares better as Watson. ▪ Tom Baker starred in a 1982 BBC1 Sunday teatime adaptation of Doyle’s demonic-dog tale, but he now considers his performance a failure: “I couldn’t lift the character into that special world that makes Holmes so funny and fascinating.” ▪ Will Ferrell and John C Reilly…

PICK OF THE DAY Enslaved with Samuel L Jackson 9.00pm, 10.00pm BBC2 DOCUMENTARY New series Actor Samuel L Jackson co-presents a wide-ranging history of the Atlantic slave trade. His ancestors were trafficked from Gabon in West Africa as part of what he calls “the greatest wealth-generating machine the world had known”. The scale of it is spelled out: over four centuries, 12 million Africans were shipped to the Americas, with perhaps two million dying en route. We follow a team of divers documenting sunken slave ships and retrieving the ivory that went with them. Meanwhile, Jackson travels to Gabon, and a vast lagoon where ships picked up captives brought from further inland. There, in a striking scene, he sees entire islands formed on discarded oyster shells — acres of them, in thick layers —…

ALL-STAR COOKSON SAGAS

Catherine Cookson’s sagas of hard graft and plucky heroes were turned into hit TV dramas in the late 1980s and 90s, many of them featuring big-name or rising stars. The Rag Nymph (2.20pm Drama) has a pre-Foyle’s War Honeysuckle Weeks (right). And in other adaptations, you can find… Sean Bean as a hard-drinking docker in The Fifteen Streets (1989). Jane Horrocks also features, as a religious mystic. Catherine Zeta-Jones plays femme fatale Victoria Chapman in 1994’s The Cinder Path, with a young Declan Donnelly as a stable boy. A pre-Downton Abbey Brendan Coyle guards a runaway in The Glass Virgin (1995). Emily Mortimer co-stars. Robson Green is typically roguish as a rent collector with an addiction in The Gambling Man (1995). Emilia Fox takes the lead part of Vanessa Ratcliffe in The…

PICK OF THE DAY Who Do You Think You Are? 9.00pm BBC1 DOCUMENTARY As with many episodes, Jodie Whittaker’s genealogy journey starts with a cherished family tale lovingly handed down through generations. It’s about Jodie’s adored granny, Greta, and her middle name of “Verdun”. The story goes that it was bestowed on Greta in memory of her half-brother Walter, who died at the Battle of Verdun during the First World War. Jodie’s delightful dad Adrian has actually started a file called Greta Verdun Whittaker in the quest to find out more. Though, “Can I say there’s bugger-all in it?” he tells his daughter cheerfully. As always with research into family folklore, things aren’t quite what they seem. But Jodie Whittaker’s real gasp moments come as she goes on to explore her mum Yvonne’s side of the…

As we’ve been witnessing over the last month or so, the production teams on our soaps have had to come up with no end of tricks to keep their shows on the road since filming resumed. Body doubles. Clever editing. Perspex screens. But Emmerdale (7pm ITV) might just take top prize for the daft but undeniably inventive way it’s managed to reunite fan-favourite couple Charity and Vanessa. With actress Michelle Hardwick heavily pregnant at the time tonight’s episode was filmed, the absence of her character has been explained away by Vanessa heading off to visit her mum. But she makes an appearance this evening at a virtual romantic anniversary meal with Charity. Yes, that really is a mannequin with a tablet stuck to its head and Vanessa on the screen. Perhaps this…

EMBRACE THE DARK SIDE

SOME ACTORS DON’T mind watching themselves on screen, but others simply can’t stomach it. Amanda Burton is one of those who swiftly changes channel if Peak Practice, Silent Witness or Waterloo Road pops up on her TV. While she’s proud of the tough, no-nonsense characters that she’s brought to life, she’s also a perfectionist. Asked if she’s hard on herself, Burton jumps in halfway through the question. “Oh, yes! I’m terrible. I can’t bear to watch anything back. Even now after a day’s filming I think, ‘I could have done this’, or ‘I missed a beat’.” She pauses. “I can’t keep beating myself up. Maybe as I get older, I’ll learn to let things go.” And Burton is, it seems, taking her own advice pretty seriously; just the previous evening,…

PICK OF THE DAY The Great British Bake Off 8.00pm C4 FOOD It’s chocolate week, and it’s brutal. Prue sorrowfully surveys a baker’s showstopper with the words no one ever wants to hear: “Such a pity that it’s not edible.” But, on the other hand, we also learn the nature of what Matt Lucas cheekily calls a “Prue-gasm” after the judge is transported by delight at another offering. The bakers must battle hot weather and a tent temperature of upwards of 25 degrees as they try to wrangle white chocolate in the showstopper round and everyone makes full use of the fridges.

GOSH, IT’S ALL SO strange… shop assistants wearing visors as if they’re about to do a bit of spot-welding, people staffing tills sitting in see-through cubes like East German border guards. During a recent trip to the countryside I was at such a loss as to how to attract the attention of one young art-gallery worker, absorbed in her laptop at the pay-point, that I had to knock on the window of her Perspex house like a minor Dickens character asking for gruel. Then I had to wave my preposterously pretentious and overpriced postcards in front of her so she wouldn’t have to make contact. Poor love, what a way to spend her days. It’s not right, is it, having to go against every human inclination to chat and be…

PICK OF THE DAY Britain’s Got Talent Final 7.30pm ITV ENTERTAINMENT It’s been a funny old series of Britain’s Got Talent. Already blighted by being postponed from the spring, the semi-finals threw up unexpected controversy. Diversity’s Black Lives Matter-themed performance in week one attracted more than 20,000 complaints, making it the most complained about TV moment from the past ten years. Then 200-odd viewers took umbrage with Amanda Holden’s low-cut dress, also making their feelings known to Ofcom. The ports of calm in this storm are Ant and Dec, who get the chance to be back on top form tonight owing to the Britain’s Got Talent final being live. Yes, live!

PICK OF THE DAY Enslaved with Samuel L Jackson 9.00pm, 10.00pm BBC2 DOCUMENTARY New series Actor Samuel L Jackson co-presents a wide-ranging history of the Atlantic slave trade. His ancestors were trafficked from Gabon in West Africa as part of what he calls “the greatest wealth-generating machine the world had known”. The scale of it is spelled out: over four centuries, 12 million Africans were shipped to the Americas, with perhaps two million dying en route. We follow a team of divers documenting sunken slave ships and retrieving the ivory that went with them. Meanwhile, Jackson travels to Gabon, and a vast lagoon where ships picked up captives brought from further inland. There, in a striking scene, he sees entire islands formed on discarded oyster shells — acres of them, in…

Merton spent much of their time together taking the affectionate mickey out of the older man’s age – Parsons was 66 when Merton joined in 1989, Merton was 32 – and, occasionally, Parsons’s blazer-and-cravat sartorial bent. “He had one striped jacket, which, I think, I compared to a deckchair,” says Merton, as he prepares for Radio 4’s tribute to the broadcaster who died aged 96 in January. “I could say the most outrageous things sometimes.

Catherine Cookson’s sagas of hard graft and plucky heroes were turned into hit TV dramas in the late 1980s and 90s, many of them featuring big-name or rising stars. The Rag Nymph (2.20pm Drama) has a pre-Foyle’s War Honeysuckle Weeks (right). And in other adaptations, you can find… Sean Bean as a hard-drinking docker in The Fifteen Streets (1989). Jane Horrocks also features, as a religious mystic. Catherine Zeta-Jones plays femme fatale Victoria Chapman in 1994’s The Cinder Path, with a young Declan Donnelly as a stable boy. A pre-Downton Abbey Brendan Coyle guards a runaway in The Glass Virgin (1995). Emily Mortimer co-stars. Robson Green is typically roguish as a rent collector with an addiction in The Gambling Man (1995). Emilia Fox takes the lead part of Vanessa Ratcliffe in…

She certainly knows the field but whether she can replace the warm tone of Frostrup and be taken into the bosom of the Radio 4 family remains to be seen.

JOE SWIFT OFFERS WEEKLY ADVICE AND INSPIRATION AUTUMN SHOULD BE an exciting time as the foliage of many trees and shrubs turns a fiery red, bright orange, buttery yellow or plummy purple. If your garden stays rather green, it’s time to invest in one or two choice shrubs to reflect the season. (A “shrub” is simply a plant that develops a woody structure above ground, but isn’t as big as a tree. OK, some do get bigger than trees, but let’s not be pedantic!) Don’t prune them all into lollipops; let them be themselves and grow into interesting shapes. One of my favourites is the humble blueberry (Vaccinium), which not only provides delicious berries in summer, but has leaves that turn a brilliant crimson red when the temperature plummets. There are many…

HIS It always feels as if something is missing if a garden doesn’t have at least one tree. Some reflect every season: flowers in spring, fruit in summer, spectacular autumnal displays and interesting bark in winter. Trees also bring wildlife into the garden as they play host to masses of insects and provide important cover and food for birds. Before buying your tree, do some research about its eventual height and spread and its habit. Container-grown trees are available all year round, but from November to March you can get bare-rooted trees, which are cheaper and easier to transport. If there is a wait until you can plant your tree, never let it dry out. HOW TO PLANT ● Dig a wide hole to just below the depth of the pot/roots (use a…

Riviera Thursday 9.00pm Sky Atlantic THE NOVELIST SOMERSET Maugham described the French Riviera as “a sunny place for shady people”. This famous quote was the inspiration for the Sky Atlantic drama Riviera, which is set in the glamorous world of the super-rich. Series one and two flitted from azure vistas to Nice’s old town and pretty Provençal villages, and would have been an excellent advert for the Côte d’Azur – if it weren’t for the characters’ duplicitous dealings. But in the opening episode of series three, Riviera swaps the superyachts and opulent villas of the Mediterranean for Venice’s canals and palazzos. “We were there for three weeks and I soaked up every minute of it,” says New York actor Julia Stiles, who plays a corrupt billionaire’s widow who has turned art detective. “It’s such…

Palazzo Malipiero hosts exhibitions during the Venice Biennale and an attic apartment is available to rent on Airbnb from £201 per night. THE £7,000-A-NIGHT HOTEL During the shoot, the Riviera crew stayed at one of Venice’s finest five-star hotels, Hotel Bauer Palazzo.

I AM OFTEN ASKED questions like this one from Cliff: “Do you have any advice on selecting a funeral plan?” My reply generally is “don’t”. If you don’t have a funeral plan, then the cost (in 2019 about £4,000) is simply paid from the money or property you leave. If you have a house or flat, or savings in the bank, that will cover the cost. If you don’t have those things, it may be hard for you to pay the cost now – even by spreading it over ten years when interest will be added. Most relatives would rather you spent the money on yourself while you were alive. ‘Let your heirs pay, or put cash into savings’ It is often better value just to put, say, £40 a month into a…

Whoever came up with The Write Offs (C4) was inspired. With presenter Sandi Toksvig having made, I believe, a considerable contribution to its production, this two-part programme on adult literacy was one of the best I’ve seen. The participants were brave to face up to their disability so publicly and deserve considerable praise for doing so. Their stories were emotional and, by the end, they had all progressed – which goes to show that there must be many other people with “special needs” who, given the right help, can achieve much more than society expects. I wish the participants all the luck in the world in their quest to continue to improve. Roy Pearce wins a BOSE SoundLink Revolve speaker, in either black or silver.

(A “shrub” is simply a plant that develops a woody structure above ground, but isn’t as big as a tree. OK, some do get bigger than trees, but let’s not be pedantic!) Don’t prune them all into lollipops; let them be themselves and grow into interesting shapes. One of my favourites is the humble blueberry (Vaccinium), which not only provides delicious berries in summer, but has leaves that turn a brilliant crimson red when the temperature plummets. There are…

HIS It always feels as if something is missing if a garden doesn’t have at least one tree. Some reflect every season: flowers in spring, fruit in summer, spectacular autumnal displays and interesting bark in winter. Trees also bring wildlife into the garden as they play host to masses of insects and provide important cover and food for birds. Before buying your tree, do some research about its eventual height and spread and its habit. Container-grown trees are available all year round, but from November to March you can get bare-rooted trees, which are cheaper and easier to transport. If there is a wait until you can plant your tree, never let it dry out. HOW TO PLANT ● Dig a wide hole to just below the depth of the…

What’s the story of this family heirloom?

I found this curio, which belonged to my mum, when I was clearing out the family home. Do you know what it is, please? Lu Overy, Totnes, Devon This attractive gilt badge inlaid with enamel, featuring a rising sun, a cockerel and a rabbit, turns out to be nearly 100 years old. Around 19 BBC Radio Circles were formed by local city stations soon after the birth of broadcasting in the early 1920s. By the end of the decade, there were high-power transmitters that could reach wider audiences, which led to regional rather than city radio, and the number of Radio Circles was reduced. The name London hanging beneath the badge indicates that your mum was a member of that station’s circle. It’s very touching that she kept the badge for the…

‘She wants me all to herself’

What’s your television like? Marvin We’ve just moved house and we treated ourselves to a good new TV. We hadn’t had a new one for about eight years. Rochelle When it’s switched off it looks like a picture frame. All I’m bothered about when it comes to TVs is only having one remote. I don’t want millions. So who’s in charge of that single remote? Rochelle He is – if I don’t put it on an HD channel he gets upset! Marvin We’ve got a very nice TV that’s made for HD! I don’t understand how you can say it all looks the same. Rochelle The one thing we row about is when he cheats on me with a box set. He’ll go, “I was on my way to Manchester so I watched an episode on…

‘She wants me all to herself’

Riviera Thursday 9.00pm Sky Atlantic THE NOVELIST SOMERSET Maugham described the French Riviera as “a sunny place for shady people”. This famous quote was the inspiration for the Sky Atlantic drama Riviera, which is set in the glamorous world of the super-rich. Series one and two flitted from azure vistas to Nice’s old town and pretty Provençal villages, and would have been an excellent advert for the Côte d’Azur – if it weren’t for the characters’ duplicitous dealings. But in the opening episode of series three, Riviera swaps the superyachts and opulent villas of the Mediterranean for Venice’s canals and palazzos. “We were there for three weeks and I soaked up every minute of it,” says New York actor Julia Stiles, who plays a corrupt billionaire’s widow who has turned art detective.…

THE VENICE LOCATIONS

CASANOVA’S HOME Venice’s Grand Canal is lined with monumental palaces and this week’s episode opens with an art dealer’s party at one of them, the Palazzo Malipiero (above). Restored to 18th-century splendour, this antique-stuffed mansion was briefly home to Giacomo Casanova in the 1740s, but the teenage philanderer was thrown out after being caught with his patron’s object of seduction. Palazzo Malipiero hosts exhibitions during the Venice Biennale and an attic apartment is available to rent on Airbnb from £201 per night. THE £7,000-A-NIGHT HOTEL During the shoot, the Riviera crew stayed at one of Venice’s finest five-star hotels, Hotel Bauer Palazzo. The cast would have their hair and make-up done there in the morning and meet for an aperitivo on the canalside terrace at the end of the day.…

I AM OFTEN ASKED questions like this one from Cliff: “Do you have any advice on selecting a funeral plan?” My reply generally is “don’t”. If you don’t have a funeral plan, then the cost (in 2019 about £4,000) is simply paid from the money or property you leave. If you have a house or flat, or savings in the bank, that will cover the cost. If you don’t have those things, it may be hard for you to pay the cost now – even by spreading it over ten years when interest will be added. Most relatives would rather you spent the money on yourself while you were alive. ‘Let your heirs pay, or put cash into savings’ It is often better value just to put, say, £40 a month…

…The Write Offs (C4) was wonderfully uplifting. With her understanding, care and humour, Sandi Toksvig took the group of eight on a miraculous journey of learning. I was transfixed as they struggled through the intensive studies and tasks. Jenny Tillotson Cambridge GROUND THE FLIGHTS With the Covid crisis and climate emergency still far from being over, I wonder if TV producers and presenters may now see the rashness of their continual flying around the world? Much as it might be enjoyable to fly to South America or Africa, it’s an avoidable waste of fossil fuels. Do we really gain a lot from seeing them on location? Far better would be to contract local presenters. No unnecessary emissions and also less “imperialism” – not trusting the locals to do it properly and…

The write stuff

Whoever came up with The Write Offs (C4) was inspired. With presenter Sandi Toksvig having made, I believe, a considerable contribution to its production, this two-part programme on adult literacy was one of the best I’ve seen. The participants were brave to face up to their disability so publicly and deserve considerable praise for doing so. Their stories were emotional and, by the end, they had all progressed – which goes to show that there must be many other people with “special needs” who, given the right help, can achieve much more than society expects. I wish the participants all the luck in the world in their quest to continue to improve. Roy Pearce wins a BOSE SoundLink Revolve speaker, in either black or silver.
