SPARE a thought for “disgraced Hollywood actor Mickey Rourke”. A small fortune he’s wasted on cosmetic procedures and still he looks like Mick Miller’s stuntman. Yet, in his own punch-drunk head, he probably thought he was the only show in town.

APRIL Fool’s Day is a television minefield which always involves a scan of the schedule to try to find the tiresome and obvious wind-up show. No problem, this year, though, I thought. There it was, bold as brass, on BBC1, of all places, at 8pm. Stacey & Joe, a fly-on-the-wall, Kardashians-style yarn that would surely have had the Beeb’s head of factual entertainment put on extended gardening leave if they’d tried to screen it on any other day of the year.

UNDER no other circumstances would I dream of recommending this next show. However, if you want to see the true, horrifying extent of the BBC’s woke madness, catch this week’s episode of Waterloo Road, the show where all known science and soap stars go to die. New arrival in the latter category is EastEnders’ Lindsey Coulson, who’s undergone a Judy Finnigan-style makeover to play the school’s fearsome new headmistress Dame Stella Drake.

HAVE you got the smell of desperation coming from Meghan Markle’s kitchen in California? It’s tinged with the heavy fragrance of sycophancy and fawning.
