| Wendy’s Week of TV: Part 35: The finale | March 15, 2009 | When I first started my weekly TV update I was very diligent in writing part of it every day and then posting the whole thing at the end of the week. Now I find myself getting to Saturday or Sunday and trying to remember the details of just what I watched during the week…and often […] |
| Wendy’s Week of TV: Part 34 | March 8, 2009 | Sunday:The Einstein Factor:…young man with Doctor Who was back as it was some kind of final. He didn’t do very well, particularly on the general knowledge.

| This little fish had a brainwave | February 28, 2009 | This little fish had a brainwave. She’s now swimming both with and against the current.

| What am I going to make sarcastic remarks to strangers? | February 24, 2009 | The Chinese Restaurant is an absolute classic of Seinfeld’s early seasons along with the carpark episode which we will get to in a little bit.

| Watch, Listen and Singalong: Part 12: Be my echo | February 20, 2009 | Don’t ask me why but this suddenly came into my mind this evening. It’s a favourite memory from growing up watching Sesame Street. I remember watching it and being totally amused by Grover’s attempts to echo.
