A PARTICULARLY hormonal friend of mine texted me on Saturday night to say she was watching Oliver and it made her cry when she merely wanted to watch the show for comedy value.

Now not being accustomed to watching musicals or shows to pick musical stars (as I now understand Ifd Do Anything is) I had no idea what she was talking about.

I was even more surprised when I heard that the stars of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and The Sound of Music were selected in the same way.

But Graham Norton is now back presenting the show where musical legend Andrew Lloyd Webber, Denise Van Outen and John Barrowman cast judgement over a dozen West End wannabes.

And I have now vowed to watch next weekfs show to see what all the fuss is about. Well, maybe.

As this is a TV column, I should probably talk about something I did watch.

On Mondayfs Eastenders crazed Tanya decided to first bury her husband Max alive, then drive back to the spot (easy to find in the middle of the night in the middle of woods Ifm sure), dig him up and then bring him back home.

Now I have never tried to kill someone myself, but two points here. How likely is it that you can persuade your new lover to help bury your husband alive?

And then have a complete change of mind and return to save said husband in the middle of the night, leaving your kids alone in a house in what seems to be (from this and previous evidence) quite a violent place.

And then to top it all have him get out of the coffin and apologise for being the one in the wrong.

Clearly burying someone alive is the option if you want to get away with attempted murder.
