Bonesmashers

Back off holiday, and I've been catching up with the few episodes of Bonekickers which our V+ box actually managed to record.

The series is fascinating in its awfulness, and I hope the BBC commissions a second series, if only because it's funnier than most comedies.

But one thing stands out above all else - these archeologists shouldn't be allowed in the same room as an antique thimble, let alone seriously valuable artifacts. In the few episodes I've seen, they have managed to burn the True Cross, lose the bones of Joan of Arc, and smash Excalibur.

They ought to work for McVities, creating the fragments and crumbs which top and tail every packet of digestive biscuits.
