David Tennant

By the power of Greyskull.

Doctor Who

  • Newsround has the lowdown on The Runaway Bride, (sorry, Marie) including a pic of the baddie, and a few hints about series three.

Film

US TV

  • There's a rumour that ABC execs might be willing to pay almost any price to bring Lost back early.
  • They've also green-lit a US version of Footballers' Wives. Bryan Singer (exec producer of House and director of Superman Returns, The Usual Suspects and X-Men) of all people might direct the pilot.
  • There are a few spoilers on this week's Ask Auriello, but the only really interesting thing is that David Carradine is to guest star on Criminal Minds. I watched last week's: what do people see in it, for heaven's sake?

    Aahhh, just what this Doctor ordered for a Wednesday morning...

    Sorry, was distracted by the picture. I better read the post hadn't I...

    It's OK. I've ordered a PVR so I can record it. Which may make it the most expensive episode of Doctor Who ever watched (although significantly cheaper than blowing off my entire holiday.)

    Oh and yes, the picture. *Very* nice.

    I know Newsround isn't always the most up-to-date newswise, but didn't they cover The Runaway Bride at all? :)

    Ooh, observant. Will alter that in a minute.

    Clearly, I need a holiday. If only there were some sort of country-wide, week-long festivity approaching.

    A big ol' 'hmm' at that Transformers trailer?¢‚Ǩ‚Äùsurprised they gave away the big reveals (i.e. seeing Transformers transform), and the characters look more like shredded Gundam than the Transformers I remember. Oh well.

    Which PVR did you get, BTW?

    Humax 9200t, and if that's a rubbish one, tell me now so I can return it before it comes out of the box. I did the same kind of painstaking internet research that led me to buy the giant paperweight masquerading as my printer.

    Sounds like a good one to me. I just wondered if you were going for one that plugged into your Mac or not.

    Yes, I think you can, but I forgot to check whether it was Mac compatible or just PC.

    My friend saw David Tennant in Fortnum and Mason on Tuesday. And she doesn't even like him or Doctor Who.

    Wasted.

  • Mon 24 Nov: I'm going to be very busy until Thursday so chances are I won't be doing much reviewing of Survivors, 24: Redemption et al. Sorry!
  • Tue 18 Nov: Does it count in the CSI: Miami drinking game if David Caruso and Emily Procter are apparently in the same scene together, but they never speak to each other and you never see both their faces at the same time?
  • Sat 15 Nov: The Ascent of Money "sponsored by Cayman Islands". Huh. What's going on there then?
