A few years ago I remember waiting with eager anticipation for Victoria Wood's seasonal comedy programme - Tinsel and something or other - and, boy, was I disappointed. It was clichéd and boring. My heart sank. Had Victoria Wood joined the list of people who used to be innovative and amusing but was now old hat?
Then came "Housewife 49". What a wonderful, underplayed drama. I watched it again the other day and it was so beautifully done - every character so well drawn.
Last night "That Day We Sang". I wasn't sure whether to watch it. I'm not that keen on musicals (though I love "Grease", "Sweet Charity" and "West Side Story"). But, again, it was beautifully done and I found it very moving.
