Miranda Sawyer's comments made me shake my head - though she did slightly redeem herself with the praise for From Hell.
Tom Paulin never fails to make me laugh. He really does seem to have his dial constantly set to 'anti'. There was a nice tale about an irish band calling themselves tompaulin, and saying it was because he was their hero for always disagreeing with everything. Paulin heard about this, and - you guessed it - rang up to disagree with this assertion...
Good to see coverage for the book on national TV, yes, but it seems that the reviewers didn't take it very seriously - not reading something you're meant to be reviewing is very bad form, surely? How would people respond if a film reviewer said they'd had headphones on during a film, but had enjoyed the onscreen images?
