I know I've not been the most prolific recently. I've had a fair amount going on in real life which has impeded my tv watching so I've not had a whole lot to say.
In an insane move I've also signed myself up to do NaNoWriMo this year and after years of procrastination I've given myself an ultimatum to write the novel I've been thinking about forever.
How this will impact what I can find to say about TV I don't know so I shall have to wait and see what happens. But to quote Granny Weatherwax. I aten't Dead.
I appear to have picked up a few readers! Which is awesome and I think some of you I don't even know irl. Which is even better I'm finding an audience somewhere which is good. Please feel free to comment, I live for the knowledge that someone other than me is interested in my blatherings.
While I'm here I kind of wanted to talk about the BBC show Merlin. Its shown on BBC One on a Saturday night in what I call the Doctor Who slot. It stars Colin Morgan as a young Merlin with Bradley James as Arthur. There is Morgana and Gwen played by Katie McGrath and Angel Coulby. Not to mention the best bit Tony Head (giles!) as King Uther and Richard Wilson as Gaius Merlin's teacher. There are loads of great cameos in the show, episodes veer between funny and dark with plenty of monsters. Having said that this series has been much darker in tone. And whilst the show can feel a little bit repetative at times the calibre of guests the show attracts more than makes up for it.
Great Saturday night tea time fayre.
Oh and John Hurt is the voice of the dragon :D
