Week In Review: Week 25, 2007
Would You Jump For Joy?
Well, despite the unseasonal weather that usually manages to keep folk indoors and works wonders for viewing figures, I have been (once again) extremely remiss when it comes to keeping up with the TV schedules. This week there was plenty of opportunity to see highlights of the almost-annual mudfest known as Glastonbury. The Arctic Monkeys headlined on Friday night and were quite marvellous (especially their Diamonds Are Forever cover) and the Fratellis were pretty good too. For the first time in years I actually felt a pang of regret for not trying to get tickets. Heroes and Doctor Who put in very turns as both seasons continue to delight but it was the return of My Name Is Earl that was my highlight of the week. It seems to be quite effortless in its comedy and delivers laugh out loud moments with astonishing regularity.
