    There's an interview with Freema in the Guardian today, as well. I get the impression she lost her patience with Hannah Pool a bit. And doesn't Mickey count?

    Speaking of Andy Serkis, I see he's playing Einstein in that BBC/HBO drama you mentioned yesterday.

    Hey, I'm in that RTD interview! Me! Yes, me!

    Well isn't that who he meant when he said:

    "-Torchwood had a mixed reception?¢‚Ǩ¬¶
    - What do you mean, a mixed reception?
    - Some people hated it.
    - You mean among online, moaning old minnies?"

    Hey, Russell mate. Less of the "old".

    Just read that Freema interview - I really like her. What a set of absurd questions - "Are you playing her as the steroeotypically feisty black woman?" "Yes, I am. How smart of you to have noticed."

    Yeah, RTD's impervious ego is showing again. Torchwood had serious problems. And I'm younger than him.

  • Sky One's Empire was a bit poor, wasn't it?

  • Warship got a lot better and more focused as the series went on, so I'd recommend catching it on re-runs if you can since it's worth sticking with to the end.
