WHAT a refreshing change to see a newly written drama for television that does not feature an overworked police officer, private detective, judge or pathologist.

The Second Coming was thought provoking, imaginative and funny. Yes, it had loopholes, and tailed off disappointingly in a weaker second half. But overall, well done ITV1 for having the foresight to give the Russell T Davies drama the chance to be aired on mainstream TV.
