You know when you're feeling pretty much better, but not at work and not up to doing anything sensible. Obviously, the only thing to do is to screencap some random DVD and make icons. So, here, the BBC's 1990s version of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. (I did the first couple of episodes. I might do the rest, but only if people think it's worth it. Or I get really bored again. Anyway, this is a sane-sized post this time.)


Oh, and can anyone put me out of my misery? The theme from this is here. This is clearly taken from something I used to sing at school, but I can only remember random snatches of. If anyone else can tell me the actual words, or the title, I'd be less annoyed. ("Back into storyland oft may we go... but the giants are dead and the dragons have fled... [And now we fight] 'Gainst the dragons of anger and the ogres of pride" something like that. Seriously. I'm not going mad. It had three verses. And the words match up too well for the use of it to be coincidence. If I could remember them properly.)

Day 04 - Your favorite show ever

(Because I'm slightly bored with the show that will be my answer to Q3 right now. I won't be tomorrow).

Hmm, my favourite TV show ever? What could that possibly be?

I think it might be this old thing. It's quite well-known and it's one of the longest running shows in the world. Its lead character has been played by 11 different actors (and I love all of them, really and truly). It can be anything it wants, and pretty much has been at some time or another. I know everyone will have their own favourite show, but this is absolutely the most unique TV series there is: love it, hate it, never even seen it, but you've surely got to admit there's nothing else that's anything remotely like it. (Not all of it at once, I mean.)

And I think people might possibly have guessed what my answer would be there. I have other TV obsessions, but they come and go. This one is forever, I think.

And, yes, I like it all. I don't believe in Classic Who and New Who, though I use the terms sometime. I like the 1980s, even Timelash. I love the b&w stuff and can even amuse myself while watching The Sensorites. I have no problems with dodgy 70s CSO. I am a totally hopeless case. I don't even hate any producers. I can grumble about Chris Chibnall, but that's about as far as my disgruntlement goes.

Full list of days )
