Radio 4, 8pm
Kit Green, right, the cabaret
personality behind the
ghastly fictional country
music icon Tina C and singer
of songs with titles such as
I Became Schizophrenic (So
I Could Love You Twice as
Much), knows all about
questionable taste. Helping
Green to understand excess is
makeover maestro Laurence
Llewelyn-Bowen and Thomas
Dixon, a professor of the
history of emotions. The
archive showcases over-the-top personalities including
Quentin Crisp, Edina and
Patsy from Absolutely
Fabulous, and the presenter
and wine critic Jilly Goolden.
How much is too much? The
answer is here. Ben DowellFilm4
