Here are some links to things I thought were interesting.
The BBC iPlayer is Just Too Popular, heh. Though I must admit I did not understand all the words in that article.
Filming starts on new Spooks spin off. This has the potential to be pretty spiffy, I think. Either that or a complete trainwreck; either way, it'll be entertaining. And it's a good concept because it's not just more of the same (though I wouldn't mind that) but actually allows them to do what they can't on the parent show, i.e. show the consequences of not thwarting some terrible cataclysmic event at the eleventh hour.
Lucy Mangan in the Grauniad on the updated Famous Five and children's literature in general. No commentary to add here except "yes, EXACTLY!".
