NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
How could they do this to us?! They spend two series building up the Dr to who he is now and then just at the moment everyone has been waiting for since Rose and he were separated, and they go and get him to regenerate. Sodding Daleks
She found him. She travelled across universes and she spent every moment trying to get in contact with him, to warn him.
I love David Tennant as the Doctor - he’s dynamic and angst-ridden and I feel like in this manifestation the Doctors clearly horrific past has so much more of an effect on him. Yet at the same time, you can see how that past has made him love all life so desperately and how it drives him to keep on trying, absolutely no matter the circumstance.

Oh *sigh* yes and it does help that David Tennant is just a little bit hot.

A delightful new programme has begum on telly - Pushing Daisy’s. I watched the first episode and was truly enchanted by the bright colours and quirky style - it very much reminded me of one of my favourite films ever; Le Fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain, AKA Amélie. The characters all seem interesting, with each one playing a very specific role, even if that role is not initially obvious. I love the narrator and the precise date/time theme which runs through it. I also love love love the dialogue, with my favourite line so far being “That’s not weird, its just symmetrical.”. It looks set to be a fun series and I can’t wait to see more!

Yay the apprentice is back (although quite how many apprentice’s Sir Alan will hire on the programme yet subsequently fire later on in is yet to be seen…) This year all the candidates are utter utter arses; the boys are clearly divided into rugged, (handsome) doers and the annoying wingers. The girls seem to be either Psycho bitches or backstabbing bitches - although there does seem to be one genuinely nice woman (Helene Speight I believe her name is) They also all appear to be slightly feckless - I’ve found myself cringing more in these last two episodes than I did in four of the last series.
The second I saw the candidate Kevin Shaw, I was stunned - surely this is a joke! Was that Matt Lucas as Daffyd? Oh no…my mistake…

The latest task - “pub grub” (as named by Sir Alan himself. When writing that I feel like his first name is Sir, second name Alan…peculiar) was amusing but the winners were predictable
I do have to questions someone’s intelligence when the psudo head chef decides to use half pizzas in the place of whole when supplies get low (because no one will notice), and equally I have to question the authenticity of the girls bollywood dancer who seemed to be stripping…

The Doctor is back, looking dashing as ever (out of the 10 he is defiantly the best looking - granted he’s probably the youngest) and now with his new ‘partner in crime’ Catherine Tate. I was a bit wary of her as a ‘Doctor-girl’ as I’ve only ever really encountered her in the Catherine Tate show and another random TV drama a few years ago, but I think she was very good and she made me laugh, especially (you’ll know what I mean if you’ve seen it) at the point where she first sees the doctor.
So this weeks episode focused around what I can only describe as little-owl-babies-made-from-human-blubber-with-a-tooth - or the ‘Adipose’ (yes very clever, Adipose being another word for fatty tissue). honesty thought as an enemy the adipose were a bit, well, cute and harmless. I mean the nanny took it to the extreme but if the doctor hadn’t meddled surely the little critters would have taken away the fat until the person was suitably skinny and moved on. Or maybe I’m missing something - at any rate if the Adipose want to take some of my fat I’d be more than happy to let them, assuming my organs etc are safe.

I’m starting to feel a bit self concious now about blogging about tv - I swear to god its not the only thing I do.

I just got bored of watching “Lilly Allen and Friends”, a tv chat show which premise seems to be “get the audience to write it for us and we’ll headline it with Lilly Allen cos she can sing good and is amusing”
The whole of the first episode seemed to be “here is an example of what we like, but we want you to send it in for us!” - eg, video clips of animals fucking (yes, ok, so they are strangely and wrongly amusing). They also got David Mitchell on and did a fairly bland interview, at which point I switched off.
In the beginning Lilly (I keep wanting to spell that with an e…I don’t know why) Allen (I also feel uncomfortable calling celebraties by their first name even though you know who I mean - I’m not friends with her and so it seems weird.) asked members of the audience to relay a funny and embarrassing story about themselves, and its always fun watching people sell their dignity for a small moment of telly time, but when she said their names, none of them even tried to pretend to be shocked - it was clearly rehearsed and that takes the fun out of the whole situation. Its far less humiliating!
I have to say I’m disappointed - I’ve thought Lilly Allen was funny and I like her music, but her show just felt very scripted. Maybe I’m being mean - she’s not a comedian really and this is the first episode and I couldn’t do better but I’m not going to be watching that again.
I’m also not going to watch it because its a bad influence and got me hurt; L.A (there, less letters…which I’ve just added by typing this…) can fit her fist in her mouth, and it looked fairly easy and I though “well everyone is always telling me I’ve got a big gob…” (despite being told by numerous dentists I have a very small mouth and have had to have a lot of teeth removed to ensure I don’t end up looking like I bought t-rex dentures) and yes, I stupidly tried…and failed, but in the process I managed to split the corner of my mouth. So now it hurts - stupid me.

I just finished watching a channel 4 documentary (so you know its gotta be quality :p) entitled “My Fake Baby”. Its about People who collect plastic baby dolls which have been (very very skilfully) made to look as lifelike - you would swear some of them were real. Some even come with ‘heart beats’, they ‘breath’ suck etc (just like baby Annabell for those who know what I mean). Each one is a true work of art - really really incredible.
But…its so weird (if I’m honest a bit creepy). Some people spend so much money on what are, effectively, toys.
I mean I can start to understand the reasons, and it is harmless enough - for one woman she said she didn’t want children but liked having a clean perfect baby (Still, a little bizarre, but harmless). Another woman had a mock-up of her grandson made when he was a baby because he and his mother had moved to New Zealand and so she couldn’t see him much.
Its also sad…I imagine some of women have them who cant have real babies…and that really really is absolutly tragic.
Some of the models are just freakin’ weird - they look dead
For example
Yet, it is harmless, and I guess if I applied that to “you can have a real looking pony that neighs but doesn’t shit or die” hell, I get it completely!!

*EDIT*
I do not think these women are mad, I just think its creepy - and am I not entitled to my own opinion?

*EDIT EDIT*
Haha! I had no idea this would cause such a stir (okay, so not really a stir more a niggle in the grand scheme of things, but for this blog it really is an almighty whisk!) I have no idea how many of my commenter’s have found my blog but I naturally appreciate the interest.
I just found a ‘reborn baby nursery’ with what I think is a rather…inept name
Still Moments Nursery

*EDIT EDIT EDIT*
No, I don't know here you can buy them etc, dont ask, you could try here.

Yesterday I was vegging in front of the tv, watching a Trinny and Susanna programme, something about them re designing work uniforms in Britain or something. Anyway, the more I watched it the more and more I disliked those two women - Susanna is an unbelievable snob and acted like a spoilt brat throughout the show when they had to do the jobs they were designing uniform’s for - such as supermarket shelve stacking or working in a canteen of a hospital. But both of them were far far to up themselves - they seemed to have the idea that they would change peoples lives by changing their uniforms to pink gingam shirts rather than blue polo shirts. Also they were so incredibly patronising.

During said TV programme, an advert came on for davidoff, WITH SAWYER ON IT! SAWYER SOLD OUT.
Well okay, so Sawyer is not a real person and is in-fact an actor playing a role which has been written by script writers, but still…his character was so lone wolf cowboy, you just know he didn’t wear Davidoff. Oh and Jack from lost has also sold out and is now advertising some moisturiser for men. I’m sorry but Jack is a far to busy man to wear moisturiser.

I think I’ll continue on my telly theme….hmmm. Oh yes - I also watched the film Solaris. Well, I say watched - I nearly watched it all, but honestly it was so shite I couldn’t face it till the end, which is unusual for me as I do usually watch the end regardless. For me Solaris was so very confusing - I felt like I’d started to watch it half way through; Also it felt like vital story was missing and also that vital parts of the plot had not been thought about or developed. I would not recommend you waste any of your life watching this film. Utter Utter crap. Go watch the trailers - make so much more sense.

In the oh so fascinating Irish History lesson yesterday, somehow I got into a heated discussion with Jess and Maria on the merits of each CSI series and which one was best.
I’m firmly in the camp of the original good ol’ CSI Vegas with Gil Grissom - man who knows all. Jess however likes CSI Miami. I detest that series - that bloody Horatio with those stupid sunglasses (well I suppose he is in Miami…) and that ridiculous flippy floppy hair (I suspect I’ve mentioned this before actually) I mean how many times does he need to take those sunglasses off and stare into the distance in one episode?!
Jess insulted Grissom, calling him “Bug Boy” - yes okay, collecting bugs is a wee bit odd, but he’s so smart and funny I can forgive him the odd peculiarity. He really does seem to know everything.
Maria likes CSI New York, which is a neutral territory for me and Jess - both can agree we can watch it.
I do love CSI. It is really really cool - its a good thing there are so many episodes to keep me hooked whilst I wait for the next series! (Whats going to happen to Sarah?! She and Gil were a way cute couple so they better not ruin that!)

I’ve had yet another revelation about history (they seem to be coming thick and fast) All this time I’ve been working, imagining this essay that is going to be like 10000 words, but…duh, its only going to end up at like 5000, which is about 650 words a section,and an extra 500 for one of my main points for me! So, I’ve already pretty much written 3 sections and I didn’t even realize it!
Whilst still daunting, this task is getting better with every moment of enlightenment.
