Just too white and nerdy

mymetalphantomI've had the same headache now since Sunday. Oww.
Anywho, enough of that.
Last night I was watching The Apprentice and the narrator said something like "Sir Alan tells the team to meet him in Chiswick"
To which I, completely without thinking, replied, "Chiswick?" in my very best Granada!Lestrade impression. Then realised with horror what I had done, and that I had in fact revealed to normal people the full extent of my nerdiness.
Luckily it was so nerdy that the "normal" people didn't get it and just thought I was being random. Phew.
In other news, I got annoyed at the BAFTAs and then got a bit excited over them. X Factor won which was a travesty but then David Mitchell won and so did The IT Crowd so that was all good. I know I'm late commenting on that but I was really not in the mood over the weekend.
also I totally wanna ship John Sessions and Kenneth Branagh now!
I am also trying to control my wrath over the BBC's remake of Reggie Perrin. I don't like it when people mess around with my favourite programmes on the specious pretext of "updating". Just fuck off with your updating, okay?

hmm, i'll have to check this out. is that where you get your lovely GIFs? you mentioned "slash-worthy" and my mind immediately thought of them. ha!
is it because you're internally laughing at the fact that i'll never get to watch the real BBC?! i think so.

(This isn't a very slashy moment, but I keep trying to justify my desire to ship Holmes/Lestrade...don't you think he looks happy to see him?)
The rest are from Russia's LenFilms production, which is also brilliant and actually ten times more slashy. You should watch that too!

hum, maybe ;) To be fair although I generally love what's on the BBC (I should do, I pay enough for it) there are some pretty bad things on there as well (see the end paragraph on my entry).
