Default Speccie: Haute Critique

So the Speccie lurches into foreign language mode. First the rhyming prophecies. British references were preferred by Lucy. Sorry all the rest of you but the honour of the Sphere wasept up with a win for Jerome Betts and a win for me. Well done, Jerome. Well done me. Th winners will be found here under Competition.

Meanwhile...

No. 2630: Haute critique
A literary giant of the pre-telly age is guest TV critic on The Spectator. You are invited to submit an extract from his or her column (150 words max). Please email entries, where possible, to lucy@spectator.co.uk by midday on 13 January.

Wekl I suppose Doctor Johnson is obvious. I think if you kept it very general then not knowing about British TV (which is bloody dire I can tell you - thank God for American cops and international cricket) need not be an obstacle. Also, I don't see why, say Chaucer, shouldn't do a rhymed crit. OK people - get the rabbit!
