C4 are making internet/TV history here: previewing a new show for free, online and before it has been shown on the Terrestrial channel. Shame it is such a boring show… It was vaguely funny at the time but it just had no enduring humour or intelligence to it at all. Totally forgetable – dealing with real life I.T. people is much more amusing. Still, its here if you want IT Crowd – maybe it will get better?

01.05 Detail of We Mourn Our Loss by Kerry James Marshall at the Camden Arts Centre until 29th January – don’t miss it! KJM’s paintings address the representation (or lack) of black people in the history of art and the results are intelligent, funny, beautifully constructed paintings.
