Yup.

Rubbish.

Until the X-Factor starts the only talent show is Finding Fanny. The BBC's programme casting a new production of Funny Girl, but that doesn't start until March.

Come on Fanny, we can't wait that long.

Doesn't look too bad here .... Just got home and am watching "Enter the Dragon" .... "Myth Busters" coming up ... and "Hockey Night in Canada":alright::wave8: .... It's been snowing like a sonofabitch all day, so I might just stay in, spark up a gagger, and watch for the first time shows I've already seen:smoky:;) But if someone twists my rubber arm, I might just head out to one of my favorite watering holes:thepint:

I watched the film 'The Interpreter' - about a devious African dictator attending the UN - and the 'assassination plot' which wasn't - allegedly based on the antics of Mugabe in Zimbabwe.

Bruce Springsteen was on BBC4 for most of the night. That was good.

Got to agree there, really enjoyed "The Boss" although I've got most of his stuff on DVD.

I watched that too, Margaret, but completely lost the plot. Trying to interpret what Nicola Kidman said in her pseudo African accent was difficult enough without the noise of the loud music drowning her dialogue.

Like Flashy said though, nowt else on ... thought it was just me. Still, all subjective, I suppose.

I admit that I was webbrowsing at the same time and lost the thread at one stage. I found the plot explained on the web - it made more sense then.
It was too devious for us simple honest souls to grasp otherwise.

Looking forward to seeing Ruth Jones as Hattie Jacques, in this week's bio-drama.

Enjoyed them all, especially the Jane Horrocks/Gracie Fields one.

Ice?

I'll have to get a better paper, with ink that doesn't smudge.

I thought it was stars dancing with mice, which I thought worth a look.

Hey ho, back to crocheting my caterpillar.

Make a good job of it and you may be granted a sizeable sum of public money. You could then exhibit it in the Market Hall classed as Community Art.:rolleyes::D

You can always dream.

:rolleyes:


Dear Jim'll,
could you please fix it for me to have my wool gonks be re-classed as art, and then I could laugh all the way to the bank, after being showered with tax payers' money, in the form of community art grants.
