SEX And The City, out this week, will be a welcome ray of summer sunshine for all of us who have never - Desperate Housewives notwithstanding - found anything to fill the gap the end of the series has left.

It's the only box set I've ever bought which I have actually watched. The clothes, the clever repartee, the down and dirty sexiness of the girls and their endless stream of men now seems like a distant era - like Harold Wilson's Sixties Britain. But, at last, after contractual conflict which seemed set to scupper their reunion, they're back, the whole palpitating, heaving, fornicating four of them.

Journalists sometimes ask which of them would do it for me. The honest answer is all four of them, but it's too dangerous to admit that. There's the sweet one - great marriage material. The lawyerly red-head - sexy and motherly. Or the voracious man-eating vamp, ankles behind her ears. But if I had to choose just one, it would have to be the eponymous Carrie Bradshaw. She's not the prettiest, the sexiest or the cleverest. But she would be, quite simply, the most fun.

I'm quite shocked by this - Desperate Housewives and Sex and the City? I can't even have them on mute in the background (well, for more than 10 minutes anyway!).

I think he should steer clear of pop-culture references, it just seems a bit seedy to hear his rundown of the main characters... sexy and motherly? Booooaaaak!

whats he writing about sex and the city for?! i was surprised when he mentioned on his show that he was looking forward to the film!

Here's Mark Kermode's review of the film from last night's Culture Show. That poor man had to sit through 2 hours of it... no wonder he's a touch edgy! haha

There's no way George wrote that! I bet that site he writes for have arsed up again like they did when an article about sneaking downstairs for a sly wank over the freeview porn channel was attributed to him.

Or did he write it?? When did he mention it on his show? I don't remember that!

Bollocks, there is no way I'd believe GG even watches these sorts of nonsense films.

I am shocked.
