extr@ (Spanish)
2002
In Extr@, four attractive 19–22 year olds are thrown together to play out their romances, life crises and contrasting interests in a familiar sitcom setting. A fundamental complication in their relationship is that one of the four is an outsider, Sam, with only a very basic grasp of Spanish. Sam’s efforts to get to grips with the language provide the central dynamic for the series’ language learning content. What makes Extr@ different is that the scripts have been carefully written so that the language is simple and accessible at all levels. Covering all the main programmes of study, the scripts combine wit, strong character identification and a good dose of physical humor.Grayson Perry: All Man

Assaulted Nuts
1985
Assaulted Nuts was a short-lived TV comedy series which ran in early 1985. The show was constructed as a fast-paced succession of short, unconnected sketches. It was a co-production between Cinemax in the US and Channel 4 in the UK. The US-UK nature of the show was demonstrated in the unusual nature of its casting: American performers like Elaine Hausman, William Sadler and the soon-to-be-famous Wayne Knight acted alongside the familiar British comic actors Cleo Rocos, Tim Brooke-Taylor, Daniel Peacock and Barry Cryer. In the UK the show was broadcast in a late-night slot and seen by relatively few people. In spite of the quality of its writing and the abilities of its performers, it made little impact. Seven 30-minute eposodes were made before the show was cancelled. The original broadcasts were weekly between 17 January and 28 February 1985.In Flight
