So why don't you piss off "

For one brief moment I thought this might be George Galloway
Which would be entertaining whether they focused on this http://www.youtube.com/watc… or this http://www.youtube.com/watc…

"Station to Station" is a great song but nothing matches "Word on a Wing". Sorry is that too obvious?

Second for "Darker With the Day" or "God is in the House" or anything off "No More Shall We Part"which is a fantastic album. I'd forgotten "Slowly Goes The Night" which is brilliantly playful and funny, and quite a release on what is otherwise a very tense album. How about "I Had a Dream, Joe", "When I First Came to…

Late for work again today. Somebody's lying down on the job again. Will you people please stop getting under my train? Ladies and Gentlemen - there will be a slight delay, while we hose the blood away.

Finally getting a new DS
…light, not a DSi. Now part of the reason for me getting a new DS is to play the DS Zelda games. I've played all the handheld Zelda games since Link's Awakening GBC and absolutely loved them. So… should I get Phantom Hourglass or this, or are they both not-worth-it-compared-to-link-to-the-past?

Lagavulin
Aaaaahhhh Lagavulin - that is some fine whiskey. My shot of choice for just before my wedding. I then bought the whole bottle.

A+ is silly, made it an A. Not sure what I would give A+ to though. Surfer Rosa? Isn't Anything? Daydream Nation? Exile on Main Street? Wish You Were Here?

Graded A+
First grade I've done but this record is 3 years old now and is still fantastic, and downright angry. Listen to Harrowdown Hill, remember what it's about, and seethe. It's bad for my blood pressure.

Amelie's English accent
Amelie can you be my new boss? If you phone me and give me commands with your English accent I'll obey your every command.

Third Act
Daleks, yes, the Master, yes. Too much! Davies' biggest problem has been ramping up the threat level to0 high, absurdly too high, forcing a god like resolution. For an acclaimed and talented writer his overuse of Deus ex Machina is a scandal.

If you're watching it on More 4, then we get the international edition. I don't know how this differs from the US version, but well there you go.

suitable for children?
I'm looking for somewhere to take my 8 year old son this half-term holiday. He's a big Star Wars fan and is aware that there is Trek and that it is different. Is this film suitable? Is there any unsuitable violence (bearing in mind that he enjoyed the Tim Burton Batman and sequels)? Will he be…

and I only mis-spelt her once.

But… you can't! Adrienne Shelley… Adrienne Shelley! This is her last chance for, well I was going to say immortality but that's a little tasteless. Adirenne Shelley so beautiful. And it was a fantastic film, and "The Unbelievable Truth" and "Simple Men". Can't remember a damn thing about them except that one chap, err…

Bungeling Bay
I remember Lode Runner - don't think I ever played it though (maybe once or twice from a collection tape of misc games). Bungeling Bay, though - that was fantastic. There was a Bungeling Bay game-a-like on my son's Thomas the Tank Engine V-Smile game (the Harold the Helicopter game) and that was quite…

"Weight" in kilos?
OK so on Terra we weigh cooking ingredients and give the result in kilos, which is right and wrong both, as we are indeed weighing the sugar (using a gravity/spring tension balance), and getting a result in Newtons - the scale then extrapolates on our behalf and gives the results in kilos, which is…

I second the thanks to all. It's always seemed inappropriate to comment, as we're watching the episodes so much later. I suppose we should be happy that no-one's posted later episode spoilers in earlier reviews, still.
