I love the BBC classic comedies. I'm actually directing 'Allo 'Allo for my amateur dramatic group at the moment and we have hysterics every rehearsal because it's just so silly but so very funny. We're putting it on at my local Little Theatre in May and I just hope I have a full cast by then, as my German General has been cast three times and every previous one has had to drop out for various reasons! I forgot about Allo Allo, I think I just about have them all on DVD too. Good Luck with your play Dit : ) |

Gosh, lets see what Ive been watching over the Easter Weekend and this week:
BBC IPlayer: Paul Merton in India - this was excellent with a different view of India and Paul is just so funny.
PA's - Was a bit kooky but I had to watch the whole series just to see what happened.
TV: Dance Academy series 2, Home and Away (so sad hadnt watched it for years then when visiting family earlier this year have gotten somewhat hooked), James May's Man Lab Series 2, QI, Agony Uncles, Country Town Rescue and of course Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries (DMC I am well and truly hooked on this show).
DVD: Man Lab - series one, QI series one, Im currently watching Kath and Kim (Aus version) and am up to Series 3. Ive also got the first disc of Alfresco to watch (Quickflix/Netflix). Im also ready for another Red Dwarf marathon (Im not sleeping well at present)
Question has anyone seen the BBC series WHITES with Alan Davies in it, I picked the first season on DVD and just wondering if anyone has heard of it or is it just one that has slipped by me previously.

Isn't Miss Fisher fabulous, pesepheny18!! ;D ;D If you read the books, she gets even more fantastic! ;D
I've seen the first episode of Whites. It was ok, didn't grab me completely. I've seen a lot on Twitter about fans wanting the BBC to commission another series, but nothing else.

Just finished watching the 'Top Gear: Vietnam Special', on BBC America, and now watching the 'Top Gear: Bolivia Special'.  It's been a great week of viewing on BBC America, almost 24/7 of 'Top Gear' episodes.  |

I've just seen this video on the BBC news website,. It made me smile because, if it wasn't for the fact that I know James is in London today (at the Science Museum) it could just have been him - total sense of direction failure in a Dacia Duster. www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-17829438 |

US residents! A lot of PBS stations have bought the second season of Sherlock and are presently running the first season. Check your PBS station's listings for this weekend, pronto! Thou shalt not miss this show!
If you have Netflix, seasons 1 and 2 are available.
As you were.

Last night I was watching an old, old, old episode of The Saint, wherein the villain repeatedly said "I have done things properly." I giggled every time he said it.  |

Fizzy- The OH and I always loved The Saint. Where did you see it or did you rent it?
I was re-watching Senna today and it suddenly dawned on me the Brazilian lion in Aardman's Creature Comforts is very Senna like. Was this obvious to everyone else and I'm just catching on?

I'm watching Horrible Histories on the red button on BBC. I love the programme anyway, but this is a series of music videos. which surely must be designed for parents as much if not more so than their children, as each is a pastiche of a particular song and the video that went with it. So at the moment it "Mary the first, that's me" in the style of Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights", it's just been "Hey Hey, we're the Thinkers" (Aristophanes et al) based on "Hey hey, we're the Monkees", "Luddite, Luddite" Sex Pistols style, and a very cleverly written slow rap based on the Pilgrim Fathers. The guys and ladies who write and perform this stuff are seriously talented.

The guys and ladies who write and perform this stuff are seriously talented. You can tell I'm on my own in the office at the moment... Couldn't agree more, Dit - HH is a brilliant show. The songs (I think all of them) are written by Richie Webb. Many of them stand up as songs in their own right, rather than just pastiches, the Pilgrim Fathers rap being one example. Particular favourites of mine are "Do the Pachacouti" and - of course - "Literally..!" |

Random question: Was Pierce Brosnan the worst James Bond ever just because he was? Or because he was given the worst plots & scripts to work with?

Post by jmsquared on May 12, 2012 4:07:27 GMT
I think a bit of both Fizzy. He was nowhere near ruthless enough for my liking, and I felt a weak actor generally. I like Daniel Craig though, although Quantum of Solace had a terrible plot and lacked the Bond charm. This is a subject I could go on and on about, but I won't!

After Sean Connery, I actually liked Timothy Dalton the best...he was very ruthless. Daniel Craig also.

Post by jmsquared on May 13, 2012 3:52:12 GMT
Agreed. Sean first, then Daniel/Timothy about equal, Roger (but only for comedic value...I never considered his as proper Bond films, far too tongue-in-cheek), then lastly Pierce and that dreadful Aussie George Lazenby. Really hope the new one is up to the very high standard of Casino Royale.
Psssttt.....I really had the hots for Timothy at the time.....ruthless indeed....and he could so rock a tux!

Here's my 2 cents! Sean, Pierce, Timothy, Roger and George. A Scotsman, Irishman, Welshman, Englishman?, Aussie. I think Daniel is very good perhaps between Pierce and Timothy.

Timothy Dalton has had a lot of stick over the years and many have labelled him the worst Bond, but at the time The Living Daylights came out, he was hailed as the saviour of Bond. It had been languishing for years with Roger Moore and his eyebrow and badly needed a shot of adrenalin.
The Living Daylights brings back memories of a really enjoyable time in my life and is therefore my fave Bond film (not the best, just my favourite) therefore Tim Dalton is my favourite Bond.
Pierce Brosnan never hit the spot for me - too pretty pretty.

As I'm 'fessing elsewhere, I might as well admit that besides James the only other person I've ever 'followed' is Timothy Dalton. I caught a glimpse of him on the TV playing Mr Rochester in the Beeb's Jane Eyre, and was instantly besotted!  |
