There are few things in life that I find more satisfying than returning home from a fun, but intense weekend at Steven’s and flopping on the sofa for the evening, in the company of some of the UK’s most celebrated detectives. ITV3 seldom disappoints and last night served up a delightful double bill of a… Continue reading Queers For Midsomer→| Love, Belief and Balls
