Don't worry, I'm cognisant with them all now, thanks to Torchwood:MD :)
Think I'll start them tomorrow though.

Muddy day today at school.

I'll give it a try.

I've been watching Outnumbered. I don't have any kids, and I think it might be less funny to parents. I love watching a twenty minute scene about getting ready for school in the morning and at the end the characters are no closer to being ready to go.

I wouldn't be so sure. It's a favourite in the staffroom, and I'm in a minority in that I don't have any children of my own (2 in 30?)

Also the stream of consciousness approach appeals to many parents brought up on "exploded" sitcoms.

I thought this was a thread about Benny Hill. :(

Stuff like that is usually very funny to parents, because it means that they're not alone, they're not bad parents for living in a maelstrom, and that things could always be worse. It's like how people with messy houses really like watching Hoarders. :)

Watched the first episode of Survivors. Looks like it's worth watching more.

Why the heck is QI only 30 minutes? Surely those wits could carry on for three times that long each week (and they probably do) and I'd watch it.

There's also the extended editions QI XL which are 50 minutes.

british television, not british radio. I have misremembered this story about the BBC's World Service program. They're going to carry advertising for the first time.

What is the relationship between BBC television and BBC radio?

They are as one - but don't tell the radio people that! I worked for both (but was never directly employed by either) for over twenty years.

Anyone watching this series of Sherlock?
I've watched episode one so far and am making inroads into episode two.

Gatiss, Cumberbatch, Tovey, Freeman. British TV at its best.

I watched the first one of the new series, Murder in Bohemia. Really enjoyed it.

I'd started watching it a few days prior, but after about 10 minutes I realised I was in entirely the wrong mood. wasn't hiting my buttons at all. Just thought Sherlock was a bit of a dick.

Went back to it and really got into it this time. Loved it.

I'd only seen one of the previous series. I'd caught the others in passing, but hadn't watched them. So, after I'd seen Murder in Bohemia, I went back and watched eps 1 and 2 of the first series. Am going to watch the third this weekend, then skip onto ep 2 of the current series.

Awesome, awesome prog. It's finally got me.

We looooove it. Have watched all the first three episodes more than once. Really itching for the second season to get posted to Netflix.

Mary is also addicted. She had me set up a UK proxy for her so she can watch the rest. I swore to her that I couldn't because I didn't really want to be fussed with it. :)
