Thursday is our new day to publish the Week, at least for the summer.
This week, "The Way Out" on the Dave channel.
Mel Giedroyc puts some comedians in a locked room, and watches them try to find their way out.
Worth watching, generally entertaining, often funny, and with a few nuggets of science.
Another game show which incorporates large balls. All the rage I guess.
Last boost: as well as being a cracking wit, Alex McMillan is one of •the• greatest question writers on quiz shows.
Look for their credit on Bridge of Lies, The Finish Line, or recent Only Connect. You’ll be sure to find an interesting - and accurate - moment there.
Alex’s best? From OC: the lion, the witch, and the (Ikea) wardrobe.
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire hopeful fails £8,000 question — can you get it right?
A review of "The Neighbourhood" on ITV.
Sometimes, i watch these shows so you don't have to. And i very nearly didn't get to the end of this one.
It's hideous, quite the worst programme i've seen in many years. Dull, insipid, and it feels fake from the core.

"Celebrity Sabotage" gets the Week's review this week.
Rather enjoyed it: they'd put plenty of effort and budget into the show, and some careful editing made sure we knew what was going on at all times.
