@stillawake It’s terrible. And also brilliant. Wobbly sets, dodgy acting, great characters, fab one-liners and brave plotting.
Wonder if I can be up another half-hour earlier tomorrow, in my ongoing quest to get back to pre-Christmas working hours ;)
@stillawake I didn’t think you were being facetious. Given some of the acting talent it’s possible you just remembered them as puppets :D
@stillawake No. It’s one of the most influential SF series ever made; it’s just quite dated (started in 1978) and low-budget even then.
@stillawake It’s *very* likely that it’s one of those things that’s only brilliant if you remember it from when you were ten.
@stillawake Nope. Doesn’t seem to be on Freeview. I’d stick a DVD on, but I might just watch the Blake’s 7 that’s already in the player ;D
@stillawake On the other hand, I have most of Jonathan Creek on DVD. But I’d still turn it on if I could.
@stillawake Aha. I don’t think I have it.
@stillawake Oh. Is that a TV station? Wonder if I have it (And could they have made their name any less Googleable?)
@stillawake What!? Where?
@Indiechops I don’t know! We’ll be trying to see it again next week. We really enjoyed _Boxing Day_ instead, though :D
Bad: Safety Not Guaranteed was sold out at @wshed. Good: we went to Thai Edge and then saw Boxing Day instead, which was excellent :D
@Indiechops Quack!
@hayles D’oh!
Off to see Safety Not Guaranteed at @wshed soon :D
@hayles My tip: keep an old set of headphones in your gym bag.
@gallopen484 @Duchamps_Brides Cool. I went on her novel-writing course a few years back and it was great fun. Hope yours runs!
@gallopen484 Is that Rosemary’s one? She’s really good. Liked the look of it, but I just can’t do Tuesday mornings.
@Duchamps_Brides @gallopen484 I just signed up for the Thursday evening course :D

@Duchamps_Brides That’s the one. Looks good but might clash with other Thurs things for me.
Snappity: More digging through family nostalgia. This microscope belonged to an ancestor of mine. flic.kr/p/dGPgm7
Considering a Spring term short fiction course at the Folk House…
@DaveLincoln *Raises hand*
Clonkanoia: The worry that the sound coming from the washing machine is an expensive portable electronic device knocking around inside it.
Mornin’, tweeps.
Nicolexdan If you draw ‘-2 -2 + =’ on your pillow with your finger, it will sound like ‘Chim Chimney’ and my mind is now blown.
@talkie_tim @stillawake Cute!
