Review:

Encore, Boorman is presumably selected meticulously in order to make the other Tosser look interesting, the only real purpose 
one can bestow upon these celebrity/ loser type programs; as foreseen by George Orwell, is to try mocking them, which is itself 
tiresome for those with sufficient instinct to avoid even being conciouse of their blasted existence. Boorman is presumably a token 
of the Actors authentic past in the slums of middle class Nostalgia, he's so chirpy, laughing at all of the toothsome blank-faced, 
would be  auteur's ribald but ass-achingly stale Lad Humour. 
Importantly, Boormans no threat to the others thespian kingdom, I think this form of entertainment is really not substantial enough 
to be critically analysed, judging fom Lizzies comment it is aimed at  (much like the programmes featuring Phat Phased Jamie 
Oliver)  Ladies and their consorts who like some sort of male perspective but not a full on gay type of campness.
Whats wrong with choosing to be a Closet Gay Man, Ewan?, (not subjucation) why go to such lengths? . An Actor does what an 
actor does, but in the past a darkened cell of pain gnaws and whispers, scratches at the door in winter, oozes through the dried 
out timber in the heat of the midday sun. Jealous little cinders, all you need is one glass slipper and a vast bland patient 
congregation.
