Ishmael Smith

Weekly rough sex and fetishised violence, children's teevee of the darkest kind. Star and uber-luvvie, Murphy, is said to have flown over Birmingham in a helicopter and then shaken hands with a real gipsy, that's how keen he was to get it right; writer, Steven somebody, slobbers that his historical and linguistic solecisms are necessary to make the show accessible, that the viewers are, in other words, stupid and of course he's correct, stupid and crazy.
