December Talking Meme

[thisbluespirit]

This has been doing the rounds again, and it was such fun last year to read everybody's posts, so i'm really looking forward to that again! I have decided to attempt to do it myself and hopefully not drop out this time. However, I definitely wouldn't be posting every day in December (or any month), so just give me a topic and I'll post on it any time between now and January. (If you specifically want to request a date for some reason, go ahead, except not between 22nd-31st Dec.)

Give me a topic, and I'll ramble on. It can be anything from fandom-related (specific characters, actors, storylines, episodes, etc.) to life-related to whatever you want.

They may be brief, or not, depending on the subject. Also, I reserve the right to decline prompts that I don't feel equipped to meet.

In other news, I have just watched both those Alfred Burke film shorts and he was a murdering rotter in both of them, but they were pretty enjoyable overall. There will no doubt be pics at some point - and the best bit probably was the bit where he was on the bed with the gun and the bow tie and the dodgy wallpaper.

But, yeah, he was a nasty piece of work, times two. What did I say? (I know my character actors.)


(I'm not now wondering what he gets up to in the other two Edgar Wallace films he was in.*)


(*I lied. Yes, I am.)

What's on your DVD buying wish list for 2015?

Is that the topic? Because I'm afraid I just don't know. I have a wishlist, but it's sort of more like keeping note of things, and then I get something if it goes really cheap when I have money to spend on such things. Would you like to give me a different one or shall I try to answer that one in slightly more detail? :-D

They were enjoyable, yes. I shall have to actually watch the other 5 on the set at some point!

Um, shows you'd like to watch in 2015, that exist on DVD(heh), if you had the time and money? Is that any better for you?? I've been meaning to get Tara King era Avengers on DVD for the last few years but... I will! One day...

Oh, okay. I can probably manage that - thanks! :-)

Btw, I finally got around to watching that film you told me about ages ago with pauline Delany in. I fast-forwarded most of the bits she wasn't in, and while it wasn't anything special, it was still nice to see her. (I was amused that the small child had more sense than everyone else and stepped in to ensure her no good father got arrested. That child will go far! *nods*)

If there was an exceptional film on movies4men the world would end!;p The child should meet up with the girl from 'Espionage' and form a gang:)

:Lol: Yes. :-)
