Media Monkey goes to Sheffield Doc/Fest

Four-letter Gill

"Wonky cock documentary" is AA Gill 's term for Channel 4 shows like Embarrassing Bodies, Monkey discovered during the Sunday Times TV critic's interview with BBC 's Storyville editor Nick Fraser at the Sheffield Doc/Fest . But when media journalist (and Guardian contributor) Kate Bulkley tried to defend the broadcaster for what she believed was legitimate public service broadcasting he proved a more-than-succinct debater. "Fuck off," was his only response. Monkey wasn't quite sure how Bulkley felt about this. Or indeed how this tallied with Gill's later assertion that television "at the moment is in the process of being very abusive to its audience. It used to be quizshows where people were respectable and say thank you and give them a cuddly toy. Now it's much more abusive." Unlike, say ... conference sessions chaired by Gill.

Not digging Giles

Gill wasn't a big fan of his friend Giles Coren 's BBC2 show Giles and Sue Live the God Life, either. He used his session to outline his belief that the programme – in which the Times journalist and his sidekick Sue Perkins recreated the much-loved 1970s TV comedy – was phoney and falsely pretended there was a "frisson" between the two. But it also emerged that Coren didn't think much of the programme either. "I gave this a terrifically bad review and at 10pm I got a text from Giles saying 'You were right," Gill said. Not sure Coren was quite so honest in the pre-transmission publicity, but there you are.

Channel 4's word play

The word "heterozygosity" may be a mouthful but it seems to be the new buzzword for Channel 4's head of specialist factual, Ralph Lee . Apparently it refers to wildly different kinds of genes which come together and make the whole stronger. Or something like that . Lee used the term three times describe a TV landscape populated by such diverse offerings as Junior Doctor, The Only Way is Essex, Pineapple Dance Studios and Great British Bake Off." If we had a job called head of heterozygosity I would put my name forward," said Lee. Monkey's note to self: never, but never, agree to play Scrabble with Ralph Lee.

Factual fashion error

Monkey doesn't expect to see Pippa Middleton: A Year in the Life anytime soon on the BBC.
