• 23:01 My mum had to ask for a summary of 'Ruby in the Smoke'. Well, at least only about the triad guy. Not the entire plot as she usually does. #

• 23:33 ... Well, I suppose it is the plot to put a spanner in her plans. #

24th

• 23:28 Timer serveout =/= server timeout. Not a proper spoonerism, should've been terver simeout. #

(no subject)

*is too happy about some fanfictions being updated than should be allowed*

But ahem. Watched Shadow in the North today. My mum is now going to read the books (and I shall re-read them) so she can get the story better. (As I mentioned in a tweet, she needs a summary from either me or my dad to get it sometimes.)

Even though it's been... five-four years since I've read them, I could SWEAR that Sally and Fred got married in one of the last two books. So now I'm all confused~

I liked Fred. Both in the book and in this adaption. And Rosa. Not too sure about Sally and Jim though. Mostly "THEY'RE TOO OLD ASDSK;FLJGD". Okay, for Shadow in the North Billie Piper was okay, as she does a mid-twenties looking girl okay, but not quite a 18-19 girl, even if it IS Sally.
But Jim... I always imagined him to be 16-18 in the first book and maybe mid-twenties at the end of the series.

Poor Matt Smith, he's too old for Jim but possibly too young for the Doctor.


Also, minor hilarity: there was a Mr. Harkness who had epic beard and sideburns. At least, I think it was Harkness. We were watching the first part through the TV, which has lousy quality. Usually doesn't affect the sound though.

( My mum still needs explanations and I find TVNZ's timing impeccable, but still rather fishy. )

ALSO. While I'm on the topic of Dr Who actors, David Tennant randomly bursting out into a song and dance SHOWDOWN in the middle of an arcade against its owner in some weird detective show is... beyond weird.
This happened while I was making Coconut ice cream (which you, T and Rhi, need to try, as it's totally dairy-free) and I stopped paying attention to it for the five-ten minutes it was going on. I WAS MAKING FISH FACES AT THE TV IT WAS SO RANDOM.

I kinda wish I had looked up what the title of the show was...
Just looked it up. David Tennant was guest starring on a show called Blackpool. ( A small fit or two over British TV )

EDIT: THIS, or this
Tried to find clips with as much of the scene before the random dancing/singing.
