Class of the Titans

I first saw this TV show (on Rollercoaster on the ABC, a good idea, the descendent of The Afternoon Show, with a truly atrocious presenter, which is very sad) a few weeks ago.  I missed the start of it so I was a bit bemused about who the kids were.  I guessed that Jay was Jason, and the Henry had to be Herakles, and Odey was clearly Odysseus.  The others stumped me a bit though – I guess I should have guessed that the preening Neill would be Narcissus, but I guess I didn’t expect that he would make it into a show about the descendents of Greek heroes – since he didn’t have descendents, and wasn’t a hero!  But I do like Theresa as Theseus – gender-bending, yeh!  Not a bad show, in all – quite a diverting little show.
