    Featuring Avid Merrion as the Scandinavian stalker/host and sketches in which he plays the parts of pop stars like Craig David and Britney Spears in lurid, latex masks, Bo' Selecta! is a brilliantly surreal take on celebrity culture. This first series (originally broadcast in 2002) features a number of cameos and guest appearances from minor celebs: Boyzone's Keith Duffy, Davina McCall, Vanessa Feltz and the hapless Christine Hamilton, one of numerous guests to be interviewed by a puppet bear played by Merrion whose feverish line of questioning invariably results in him sprouting a little erection. Another character is hauled up in a neckbrace (following an altercation with Lisa Tarbuck), but Merrion's innocent broken English can't conceal the fact that he's a psychotic sex maniac who explicitly lusts after celebs who "make me do a sex wee", keeps Craig from Big Brother locked in a cupboard and his dead mother in a wardrobe. Merrion's pop spoofs are also masterly: rather than mimic the stars, he reinvents them--Mel B and Britney Spears--as farting, hairy-chested Northerners, slobbing out on fry-up breakfasts washed down with lager and, most improbably, Michael Jackson as a cussing, jive-talking black dude à la Huggy Bear. Bo' Selecta! doesn't so much satirise celebrities as debase them, exposing their humiliating none-dimensionality by drawing them into a vortex of vulgar absurdity, not unlike Vic Reeves' Shooting Stars. Of course, they play along--they're on television. Although initially off-putting to some, once you get into Bo' Selecta! there is, as for Big Brother's Craig, no escape. On the DVD: Bo' Selecta! on disc features numerous extras, including a behind the scenes feature in which the production team discuss making the show ("like directing a squirrel on roller-skates"), deleted scenes including Gareth Gates as a Tourette's victim, which was deemed a little beyond the pale, some unfunny bloopers and a feature on the life story of "Craig David" with Kate Thornton, including an unmissable nativity scene in which the infant Craig plays Jesus. There's also a commentary, with Merrion as his stalker self watching himself with consternation (It's strange seeing yourself on TV"). It's a pity we don't get to hear from the "real" Merrion. --David Stubbs

    Roberta Flack's television concert, recorded specifically for the Jazz Channel in 2000, reveals a mature artist at the peak of her vocal powers. Flack is the thinking person's soul singer: a versatile performer who can swing from jazz to blues and MOR to pop with ease, always choosing material with impeccable taste; and she’s a fine pianist too (she is a music graduate of Howard University).Born in 1937, Flack is probably best known for her global 1973 hit, "Killing Me Softly with His Song", revived by the Fugees in the late 1990s. Here, Flack reclaims the song, even giving it an unexpected twist of salsa, and dedicating it to Nelson Mandela following what was clearly an emotional meeting with him on a tour of South Africa. Her rich, fluid, understated voice serves other material closely associated with her beautifully, interspersed with autobiographical stories and references (although she doesn't dwell on her commercially successful partnerships with Donny Hathaway, who committed suicide in 1979, and Peabo Bryson). "Why Don't You Move in With Me", "Feel Like Makin' Love" and of course, Ewan MacColl's "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" are all ornamented with some subtle jazz tones and inflections to classy effect. And there's a tremendous modernised version of "Sweet Georgia Brown" which gets the audience swinging. In the end, though, it's "Reverend Lee" which brings the house down. Fabulous. --Piers Ford
