However, now that I'm back, the normal abysmal level of service seems to have been resumed, if Friday night's edition of The Creatives (BBC2) was anything to go by. Those who still remember the execrable Mr Don and Mr George will be astounded that Jack Docherty and Moray Hunter have been allowed to script a sitcom again, and the really bad news is that they've not only written this dire series, about an Edinburgh advertising agency, but are appearing in it, too.

Victor Lewis-Smith, Evening Standard, 5th October 1998
