James Brook reviews programs on Freeview TV.
He’s an old codger who likes watching TV but dislikes paying for streaming services. There’s enough on Freeview to keep him occupied and if not? Well, there’s always books to read.
He is usually acerbic, can be caustic and is often witty.

James Jameson bids farewell to podcasting, reflecting on the emotional toll of creating content in a poignant, short episode that's a fitting goodbye.

James reviews Patricia Cornwell’s At Risk (2010) on Great! Movies, Gunpowder on U&Drama and (not) LEGO Masters: Australia on E4.
James is back to eclectic mixes (again) with the seasonally appropriate ‘Gunpowder’ which he missed last year;
He really rates Patricia Cornwall as a writer, but fears ‘At Risk’ will be yet another vapid, run-of-the-mill snooze-fest churned out for the dosh.
And, Although LEGO masters was forecast in what's up next, it hasn't made it, for reasons that will be apparent.

James reviews Nightmare Tenants, Slum Landlords on 5*, For the Love of Dogs with Alison Hammond on ITV1 and Time Bandits (1981) on Film
James casts his beady eye on one of his favourite films (will it stand up to scrutiny?), expects something light and fluffy with wagging tails and - in contrast - surly people doing unneighbourly things.

A silhouette of a cute little dog is jumping up at a ‘for rent’ sign for a decrepit house, while in the background is the misty, mysterious image of a giant clock.
