Film7.1SuçGerilimCinnet, Alfred Hitchcock'un yıllar sonra sevgili kentine, yani Londra'ya dönüşünü simgeler. Bu dönüş ustaya ilham vermiş gibidir: Kentin son derece başarılı bir fon olarak kullanıldığı, herşeyiyle tipik İngiliz bir seri cinayetler öyküsü izleriz. Film, aynı zamanda Hitchcock filmlerinde görülegelmiş en kanlı cinayet sahnelerinden bazılarını da içerir. Ve bu nedenle kimi eleştirmenlerden "zevksiz" damgasını yer. Sanki biraz da bunu dengelemek için, katilin peşindeki polis komiseriyle eşinin evlerindeki yemek tartışmaları, ustanın mutfak kültürüne olan büyük ilgisinin bir yansıması ve ayrıca başlıbaşına bir mizah unsurudur. Ve film star oyuncuya sahip değilse de tipik İngiliz, birinci sınıf bir takım oyunculuğu içerir.

Dizi7.2KomediQ... was a surreal television comedy sketch show from Spike Milligan which ran from 1969 to 1982 on BBC2. There were six series in all, the first five numbered from Q5 to Q9, and a final series titled There's a Lot of It About. The first and third series ran for seven episodes, and the others for six episodes, each of which was 30 minutes long. Various reasons have been suggested for the title. One possibility is that it was inspired by the project to construct the Cunard liner QE2, launched in September 1967, which was dubbed Q4. Another theory is that Milligan was inspired by the BBC 6-point technical quality scale of the time, where "Q5" was severe degradation to picture or sound, and "Q6" was complete loss of sound or vision. This was extended by some engineering departments to a 9-point scale, finishing at "Q9". According to Milligan's autobiography, the final series was renamed There's a Lot of It About after the BBC felt the public might find Q10 too confusing.
