Further details

Helping Victoria commit heresy are comedians David Mitchell and David Schneider and newspaper columnist Matthew Norman, who argue against the received wisdom that the TV shouldn't be used as a babysitter. They reluctantly concede that television viewing among the under-threes should be limited - but only to around ten hours a day. How else will the little angels learn to cook?

And in a discussion about the hypocrisy of eating farmyard animals, but not domestic pets, a range of mouth-watering recipes are rolled out for loin of Labrador and fillet of feline.
