64OBSERVER TV RADIO GUIDE SUNDAY 4 OCTOBER 1992 TV Review Resell Twisk Ik aopfe the Beatles. 'I took them from nowhere to said Keating. When I last wrote this column I'd watched all 10 episodes of Eldorado (BBC1), a claim to fame which made me an object of curiosity. I was even summoned to The World at One studio to explain myself. Since then I've slackened, but I did visit the patient twice last week.

Many of the original cast have left or are leaving, there are now more shots of the sea, but nothing can disguise the emptiness of the original idea. One kindly task the producers render to the condemned is to give them intensive acting lessons for their final scenes. The delicious Fizz played a blinder the other week, you could touch the tears. It now holds the fascination of The Killing of Sister George if you see sensitive acting then they've been fired. All is not well with another soap, Coronation Street (ITV), which is suffering from the loss of its central character the miserly publican of the Rover's Return, Alec Gilroy (Roy Barraclough).

He left his wife, Bet, for the most improbable reason he'd found a new job in Southampton. If she believes that she'll believe anything. His departure has left a gaping hole. Most poignant image of the week was Cecil Parkinson speechless and blushing deeply for what seemed like 60 seconds in Michael Cockerell's fascinating film, The Cecil Parkinson Story (BBC2). Cause of the blush was Cockerell's assertion that Parky was handsome and irresistible to women.

'However do you answer a question like asked Parkinson modesdy. Still a blush is a blush and it is a start. John Naughton is on holiday and returns next Sunday. JONATHAN DIMBLEBY'S On the Record (BBC1) is incisive, balanced and often tedious. On ITV at the same time Brian Walden in Walden is prolix, disputatious and rude.

No prizes for guessing which one your critic opted for, darting across to BBC1 only when the adverts started. When the pair of heavy hitters returned last Sunday both concentrated on the economic mess, and who can blame them? Walden toyed like a broody cat with Michael Howard, who presented a squidgy target in his new role as the Government's silver-slick-in-waiting. Unfortunately, the more Howard oozed oil across the tumultuous waters of Tory economic 'policy' the fiercer Walden became. His cheeks inflated, his blood pressure soared beyond any restraining mechanism, he lurched further into the red face. Howard, the clever QC with the in-built sneer, could spot the questions from afar; he nodded recognition as Walden wordily assembled the elephant traps.

How he must have wished he was doing the asking for 10,000 a week instead of trying to explain the inexplicable. The torment ceased only when the credits rolled. On the other side, Dimbleby had a string of Tory MPs merrily contradicting each other and what Mr Howard was saying. What a pity we could not contrast and compare. Placing these two heavyweight current affairs programmes bang opposite each other in the desert of Sunday viewing is an act of punk scheduling which ignores the needs of the viewer.

It is irritating and wasteful. The BBC, which through its licence fee and federal structure enjoys total flexibility, should give way and switch On the Record to noon. I could then enjoy the whole of John Cole's political analysis, which is by far the best on television. Cole's one foible is his obsession with betting metaphors. He offers inane odds for his political predictions.

Ignore them it is 1-10 on he cannot balance a book to save his life. Come to think of it there was not much racing in the opening episode of Trainer (BBC1), last year's wooden turkey that somehow survived into a second series. It has received a little attention behind the loose box from producer Gerard Glaister (of Howards' Way) and on first showing it deserves another outing. The change is remarkable. There is now pace, fast-cutting, pulse-beat music.

Horses are relegated to the role of elegant extras, strolling into shot beauti- (10.35pm by Bill Robinson. flh-HM 1 i fully made over, taking nude exercise swims and going on sweaty gallops. Humans get similar treatment. Glaister's magic ingredient is more rumpety-pumpety for the bipeds. In the opener, designer-clothed women arrived in every scene dripping with consumer goods.

There were leers and nudges not least from the horses who are used to doing the parading and coitus interrupts. The clue to future couplings will lie in the choice of cars. The new merchant banker, Alex Farrell (Claire Oberman), sweeps in with a very tasty open-top sports car. She tells the reformed alcoholic, hunky trainer Mike Hardy (Mark Greenstreet), who faces bankruptcy, that the horses in his yard will have to be sold. She adds icily but with eyes-aglow: 'And you'll be a But can a man with only a Range Rover make it with an open-top owner? The Big Breakfast (Channel 4) spluttered on to the screen last week like Blue Peter on speed.

Chaotic clues, scrambled links, blank screens and aimless insults made it the first 'In Your Face TV Show' where only the warts show. But by the week's end I'd succumbed to the frenzied charm of the presenter, Chris Evans.
