Got round to watching a new television show I videoed on Sunday. Actually watching something videoed "on spec" is a first. The show was Headcases, a CGI comedy, kind of Spitting Image with computer generated people instead of puppets. There were funny moments but somehow it felt a bit flat. Maybe the computer images do not have the personality of puppets in the same was as computer generated artwork seems to lack the ability of hand drawn images to communicate.
I did find the sketch where three ageing but immensely rich Hollywood superstars, Bruce Willis, Sly Stallone and Harrison Ford had been taken prisoner by an evil gold digger Heather Mills Medusa who intended to marry them all, bleed them dry and turn them to stone.
The heather character with her snake hair did seem fighteningly real and more human than the person she was moddelled from.
