Beeb

Posted by bec on Dec 18, 2007 in Geekdom

This post is going to end up talking about one of two things - the mucus flowing from my body, being told to go home from work and saying no or how fantastic Spooks was.

I’ll skip the mucus bit because even I don’t want to know about it, and the being told to go home bit went like this:

“If you’re ill go home.”
“Not ill. Fine.”
“Okay…”

And Spooks (apparently called MI-5 in the US) was genius. Genius I tell you! For those of you who haven’t seen it yet don’t worry I’m not going to give anything away. I’m just going to say in an overexcited girly way - OMG! The end!!!!! (Yes, it warrants that many exclamation points… oh, and these!!!!!!) And Holy God, when is season 7? For those who have seen it - the bit with y’know and oojamaflip when you find out that doodaa is y’know - wow, huh?!

So, the post isn’t going to be about any of those things. It’s about the news that Peter Jackson is going to produce - not direct - produce two films based on The Hobbit! To be released in 2010 and 2011. Director to be named soon presumably! And the news that Radio 1 has backed down on their decision to edit out the ‘bad’ words from Fairytale of New York when they play it (because “some members of the audience might find it offensive” - who the hell?!) presumably because the song has been played on every other radio and TV station in the country… Oh yeah, and the Beeb’s iPlayer is finally available for non-sheep er… non-Windows users.

Right I’m all news out and my nose is running again. I promise SWEAR etc etc that I will read your blogs soon. Bloglines is now showing 1173… and that’s just on the blogs I read regularly!
