Nope, these aren’t the normal critics end-of-year lists, but just a general overview of the stuff I’ve been reading and watching in 2010. I’m hoping this list will be pretty mammoth when the year is over!
I should point out a couple of things:
- These are all things I have been pre-occupied with in 2010 regardless of whether or not I have already seen/read them before.
- When I mean TV shows I mean drama, comedy and documentaries.

How’s the Charlie Brooker book? Haven’t read anything by him.

..apart from his Guardian column.. so that was a lie. How’s the book, anyway?

Brilliant. Even when you’ve read some of these columns before it is still laugh out loud funny.
