Posted on Tuesday, July 17th, 2007 at 6:07 amWell I woke up today and you’re on the other side. Our time will never come again. But if you can still dream, close your eyes - it will seem that you can see me now and then.

Posted on Sunday, July 8th, 2007 at 3:20 amDie Hard 4.0 is the dog’s bollocks. I went to see a late-night showing of it last night with Sam S, his girlfriend, his brother and one of his brother’s mates - and all of us were left buzzing afterwards.
The hacking element of the narrative was handled very well - no dodgy user interfaces with obvious buttons to be clicked, or obvious passwords guessed.
The action sequences were amazing. The references to the previous films excited muchly. And Kevin Smith was excellent in it, even gaining a clever credit of “Sith” in the title sequence. Jammy git.
This is definitely on par with the other films. Bruce Willis is still the man.
A new flavour Pringle
Posted on Wednesday, July 4th, 2007 at 10:07 amSodding Catherine Tate is going to be the doctor’s permanent assistant in the next series of Doctor Who. Arse wank.
In fairness, she wasn’t too bad in The Runaway Bride so she may turn out alright… in time. (I wasn’t keen on the idea of Billie Piper as an assistant yet she proved to be excellent.)
Freema Agyeman will also be returning mid-series as Martha Jones - as well as featuring in Torchwood. I can’t see why she was axed at all (if the rumours are anything to go by), especially if they’re bringing her back anyway. I thought she was really good.
Work is going splendidly by the way, I seem to have slotted straight into place. Ooer. And I’m doing proper projects too - none of that Fame Game nonsense.
Hot love
Posted on Sunday, July 1st, 2007 at 9:58 pmRicky Gervais has just performed the Freelove Freeway song with Mackenzie Crook at the Diana concert, then had to fill for television-eternity because of a technical error.
’twas so funny - you could tell he was bricking it. He said he’d never do Brent and/or the dance again, yet he did both through desperation.

Posted on Saturday, June 30th, 2007 at 11:49 pmThe start of my day was a bit rubbish, but it dramatically picked up when I saw Lisa this evening. I treated us both to an Indian - the full works (as in curry etc, not a sex slave) - to celebrate our joint successes of late, which was followed by the Doctor Who series finale and then a late screening of TMNT.
Doctor Who was excellent, with a really nice twist at the end that I doubt anyone saw coming. I have particularly enjoyed looking out for all the Star Wars influences in these last three eps too. (Darth Maul, the Death-Star-looking Toclafane balls, Jedi mind tricks with the Sonic Screwdriver, lightsaber-&-blaster-looking ‘rays’, lightsaber-hilt- &-blade-looking Laser Screwdriver, Jedi funeral scene et cetera.) And thankfully the series picked up after a handful of weak episodes.
TMNT on the other hand was really disappointing. The trailer looked superb but we got dead bored watching the full film. A good thing we were in such fine company, eh?
