Seymour responded by saying that Kirchick's review "was the most deliciously splenetic fanboy tribute to unreasoning hysteria that it has ever been my pleasure to gloat about" in a piece for his blog that was subsequently reposted by Jacobin and Salon. Reviewing the book for the Irish magazine Red Banner, writer Kevin Higgins noted Seymour "lands many heavy punches" on Hitchens' reputation, and that "Unhitched is well written, if a little verbose in places".Higgins, Kevin.

60 Ghouls could give even a quite well-equipped 6th-8th level party a fair amount of trouble. The main villain is a very nasty piece of work, and has a range of new spells and special powers which will appeal to hardware buffs once again. The showdown in his castle is a standard dungeon bash, and so, really, is the whole adventure, but the special effects of this alternate dimension make it more interesting than the general run of hack and slay adventures. It's quite heavy going, and I think it might give a party of up to 10th level a good run for their money.

Humanoids from the Deep is a 1980s updating of similarly plotted genre films made in the 1950s and 1960s Del Tenney's The Horror of Party Beach (1964) in particularwith the addition of graphic violence and nudity. The film was a modest financial success for New World Pictures. Critical reviews were mostly negative. Paul Taylor said in Time Out, "Despite the sex of the director, a more blatant endorsement of exploitation cinema's current anti-women slant would be hard to find; Peeters also lies on the gore pretty thick amid the usual visceral drive-in hooks and rip-offs from genre hits; and with the humor of an offering like Piranha entirely absent, this turns out to be a nasty piece of work all round".

The children were selected for the original programme, Seven Up! (1964), to represent the range of socio-economic backgrounds in Britain at that time, with the explicit assumption that each child's social class would determine their future. The first instalment was made as a one-off edition of Granada Television's series, World in Action, directed by Canadian Paul Almond, with involvement by "a fresh-faced young researcher, a middle-class Cambridge graduate", Michael Apted, whose role in the initial programme included "trawling the nation’s schools for 14 suitable subjects". About the first programme, Apted has said: > It was Paul’s film ... but he was more interested in making a beautiful film > about being seven, whereas I wanted to make a nasty piece of work about > these kids who have it all, and these other kids who have nothing.

To become O'Brien, Finneran was required to wear "frumpy black" servants attire, a wig—which Finneran described as having "poodle curls" and "one bit [that is] proper bouffant"—and spend around an hour in make-up each day to look less attractive. Though screenwriter Julian Fellowes did not give her a backstory to work with, Finneran imagined that O'Brien was both traumatised by past experiences and, had accumulated anger, frustration and resentment issues from having worked in service all her life. In 2012, Finneran stated that she enjoyed the response to the character noting that viewers "love that she’s a nasty piece of work" and "love to dislike her". During her time on the show, the Downton Abbey cast won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series in 2012 (for series 2), and were nominated also in 2013 (for series 3).

"Was Edward the Black Prince really a nasty piece of work?". BBC News. In particular, he has asserted that the oppressive period of the Black Prince's rule, did not result, as had been generally accepted, the "great rebellion of 1353" (so called by Geoffrey Barraclough, second professor of Medieval History at Liverpool). Booth's work has influenced other medieval historians; for example his study of the Black Prince's state visit to Cheshire in 1353 enabled Professor Thorlac Turville- Petre to demonstrate that the Middle English alliterative poem Winner and Waster was based on the events of that year in Cheshire. Similarly, Professor Chris Given-Wilson has stated that Booth's research on the detailed working of the mechanism of Cheshire’s government in the 1350s and 1360s has made clear the unique roles of the prince’s two successive business-managers, Sir John Wingfield and Sir John Delves. Booth's research students have continued his work; for example, Andrew Tonkinson's monograph on Macclesfield in the later fourteenth century and the late Phyllis Hill's edition of the County Court of Chester Indictment roll, 1354 to 1377.
