I'm not sniffy about TV spin-offs, but I'm unsure about this one. An unmemorable story of the zany hero's trip out is accompanied by glossy, unimaginative and curiously static photographs of the leading actors. It all seems a bit of a waste. The TV series is so successful it's bound to sell; buy were I a young bookbuyer, I think I'd feel cheated.
