moogingFirst of all: (in which I abuse capslock and my mother makes wonderful drunk comments)
Ahem.
I want Christopher Eccleston back as my Doctor now, plzkthx.
And while I'm ranting about Doctor Who, what ever happened to the script quality? It was like they decided to go from this intelligent, moving, well-acted genius first come-back series to this abysmal heap of shite that was thought too much of itself, not thought through enough and just not what I had come to expect.
Third series, you have damn well got some making up to do to me.
On a completely unrelated note: I just spell-checked this thing, and where I've written 'whassisname', the spell-check is offering me 'viciousness'. I think not.
I hereby demand that normal Top Gear is put on after the watershed. IT MUST BE DONE. Everything is just better when they can swear. Jeremy saying 'What the fuck is this?' was not only contextually right (because, ew, shitty music that was playing) but also the natural order of the world.
Anyway. James saying 'Cold Play' was utterly brilliant.
And their fiascos with dry-ice! And chickens! And wind-machines! *smushes them all*
My mother came in just before the Top Gear House Band started their Song of Joy (and she was quite, quite drunk at this point, having just returned from a meal out) and then proceeded to lean over the sofa arm and on my shoulders, heavily, and make disparaging remarks about them all.
Also, every time James was on screen, she insisted on shouting 'HELLO GAY ONE', loudly, near my ear. She then made such astute comments as 'Hahaha, that little one looks like a squirrel' (yes Mother, this has been mentioned before - also, the small rodent you're looking for would be a hamster) and 'Aha, the rude one, whassisname 'My Clarkyfun' is shitting bricks on his drum-kit!' and 'They're crap'.
I kid you not. She referred to Jeremy Clarkson as 'My Clarkyfun'.
My mother is quite brilliant, is she not?
ALSO ALSO ALSO the rampant gayness! Jeremy and Richard doing most of the song gazing at each other! James, lovely, English, masculine-yet-feminine, don't-touch-me, I-have-personal-space-issues James, waggling his tongue at Richard. I think my little slashy heart went poof. It is accurate, yes?

I just watched Recovery, and my God, that was a difficult thing to watch. More uncomfortable than anything else, and WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME. I have spent such a long time not liking David Tennant. I cannot like him now.
I think what my issue is with him is that he replaced Christopher Eccleston as The Doctor and then proceeded to bea bit utterly crap. His Doctor only has 'hyper', 'breathy-and-serious' or 'angry' mode, and I don't like it. That is not my Doctor. I also haven't got the greatest opinion of real-life!David. Did anyone see that BBC programme about tracing your ancestors, whatever the hell it was called, with him on? I kind of caught bits of it, and damn, he just came across rude and blunt and I didn't like him.
Having said that, I loved him in Casanova. He impressed me a fair bit in Recovery. I loved Doomsday from Doctor Who, but that could have been because he was being subtle. I like his subtle acting. I like it quite a lot. He looks good in a suit and a big flappy brown coat, and he has very pretty eyes and he does quiet man pain rather well.
Everything else, no. STOP SHOUTING YOU ANNOYING MAN.
Sorry about that. I get fairly wound up about David Tennant.
I do not protest too muchoh God, what if I do?
