Hot off the production line: Lohan mk II

We seem to be entering the golden age of unscripted programming - the only TV format given the time of day in the book of Revelation.

Everyone knows the number of the beast, but an often overlooked passage foretells his Sky Plus preferences. Go back to the text, and you'll find "Living Lohan" is right up there.

Yes, in a move that caused lightning to rend the skies, Lindsay Lohan's mother has stamped her hoofprint upon a contract with the E! network.

A reality show is born. This time, Dina will be sending Lindsay's little sister Ali up the showbiz chimney, with the blurb for the series promising "to follow Dina as she works double duty as mom and manager for Ali's blossoming singing and acting career".

Of course, having seen her earlier model malfunction so spectacularly, Dina is especially brave to get back on the gravy train. Should Ali suffer similar system failure, Mommy only has Michael and little Cody fall back on, so we must wish her all the best with this antepenultimate throw of the dice.
