By | April 3, 2010

Right, I’ve just watched the first episode of this blind to your comments (use this to talk about ep 2 if you like), here’s what I briefly think: It is so, so important for this sort of thing that people have to be able to buy into the set-up – if people don’t like the… Read More »

The Door
