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 reminded myself and C about 10 times this week to set up the recorder for this, just so I could see what all the fuss was about. Did we? Bugger off! I caught the last 8 minutes or so. Enough to go 'wrong clothes, wrong music, OMG EARS, nice hall, EARS ...'

Guess I'll have to download it after all *sigh*

The ears were astonishing, I must say. Is it on Channel 10's website? They have a number of things up there in their rewind/iview type thingy.
