Under the spell of True Blood season 4

For a show that's already packed to the gills with supernatural beings and beasties, we were wondering what form True Blood season 4's baddies would take. Who could possibly shake up the Bon Temps menagerie of vampires, shape-shifters, were-wolves, were-panthers and associated freaks this time around? Why, witches of course. Not witches on broomsticks with twitchy noses and black cats, but seriously angry witches, harbouring age old grudges against vampiric brutality meted out on their kind under the Spanish Inquisition. 

To get up to speed on all things witch, Andrew talks with Australia's best selling witchy author, Deborah Gray, and fang bangin' fan, Jo Casamento (The Sun Herald)

Curtains for Spicks and Specks

For the past seven years, Spicks and Specks (ABC) has consistently surfed the ratings crest, reeling in awards and critical accolades along the way. It's a show that genuinely works with a panel of hosts who appear to be actually having fun, so why call it a day? 

Andrew talks with music buffs, DJ Kate Monroe and TV Week's Pete Timbs about the merits of going out on a high.
