Merlin

Oh, look ... at least I didn't download it.

I've spent the weekend recovering and working on an enjoyable but intense beta, so I thought I deserved an hour off, and it was starting on free-to-air TV here, so I succumbed.

All of you Merlin people were completely right, it is absolutely pre-slashed. Was it written by one of Russell T Davies' ex-boyfriends?

On the whole, amusing and diverting and extremely slash friendly, but I will have to turn off my critical brain if I plan to watch any more. Pretty lads aside, it was a case of 'wrong clothes, wrong saddle, wrong architecture, wrong fruit, wrong …'

I should have just focussed on that Bradley fellow. Though he is a wee bairn, is it all right given that I have the same birthday as Germaine Greer?

I meant to concentrate on AS-H, but young Bradley was so blond and shiny and I was hopelessly distracted. In a polite old-lady sort of way, like when Bleddyn used to do my garden without his shirt on. Maybe slightly pervier, since I have no reason to like and respect Bradley James, who you can see here: http://darkaeon.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/s01e00_01_arthur_1024x768.jpg

Aw, but he seems rather likable and does a respectable job as Arthur (no, not a Merlin fanatic, just surfing bye).

Hee! He actually did do a respectable job. It's a daft character, but he played him with conviction and charisma. But I cannot think of him as a real person with rights and so on, because then I cannot look at him with such glee!
