Three colour videotapes in which the artist explores the conventions of television studio production by focussing on three aspects of the medium; the television play, the television news and the television epilogue.
The News features a television newsreader who recounts the minutiae of small-time life with due solemnity, but reveals a disturbing element of anarchic behaviour amongst the town's old-age pensioners. "A hilarious parody of television news bulletins". Arnolfini Review
In the Home "Hilarious video about the traumas of a wedding night, with scenery construction and acting style straight out of Crossroads." ICA Bulletin
The Sermon offers advice to the faithful and a grim warning to the devils in our midst. "A pulsating diatribe of insane disgust ... appalling in its manic intensity." Sunday Times
