Here comes the satsuma

Our heroine, Holby City‘s Chrissie Williams, has finally married hunky-but-boring doctor Owen, but not before trying to get off with the best man (good work).

We were pleased to note that Chrissie’s skin was did not register as being too orange on the Lowculture SatsumaScaleā„¢, but she still had a healthy glow about her.

Best line of the episode, though, went to Owen’s evil daughter, who told the blushing bride that she was “much fatter than my real mum”. Little witch!

Congratulations are due to the happy couple, then – and also to the Holby scriptwriters, who managed to go for a whole 60 minutes without including a scene where nurse Sandy bitches about someone who is standing nearby and hears every word.

Welcome to Crossroads

In the 80s, you knew a low-rent celeb’s career was over when they were reduced to appearing as a panelist on You Bet.

Now, we have a daily barometer of the fickle tastes of the nation – Crossroads (ITV1, 5pm).

After the triumph that was Emma Noble’s turn as a slutty gold-digger in the opening week, viewers last week were treated to former Coronation Street ‘star’ Scott Wright as some bloke who was trying to pass off his child as a boy, even though she was quite clearly a girl. Lionel Blair, Tim Brooke Taylor, Kate O’Mara and Linda Robson are also lined up to join in the fun.

But the best is yet to come – Dean Gaffney’s agent is confident that a one-week guest spot will be just the thing to launch his post-EastEnders career.

Who wants to put a fiver on Tracy Shaw checking in by the end of the year?
