My Secret Phone Sex Channel 4 and Blindsight BBC 4

My Secret Phone Sex. Sex sells as we all know and Channel 4 knows in particular. So a documentary about sex sells very well. So we had old hand Jenny, if you’ll pardon the pun, first time Rosa, and upper class and quite pretty sex worker thingmy, whose name I can’t remember. But names don’t matter. It’s all pseudonyms and different voices. Rather like writing.

Blindsight, BBC 4. Six blind Tibetans tackle Everest. There were also two blind guides. One of them had already been to the top, but it was the other Sarina or Sally that was of most interest. I really should pay attention. Despite being blind from the age of 12, Sarina/Sally trumped everyone’s answer to what will you do when you grow up? Oh, I’ll travel through China and Tibet on horseback. When I get to Lhasa I’ll, em, just round up all the blind children, who are openly despised in a society which believes they must have bad karma, and set up a school. Oh, and maybe later, when I’ve got a bit of free time, I’ll just climb Everest. A secular Saint.
