Dragon's Den, yo...

[carmen_lj]

...I'm a bit in love with this programme (people pitch to multi-millionaire business people for investment in their business, much snarking and such happens). My sister's fault, she makes me watch reality telly and then I get sucked into it. And these idiot women who are asking for a £150 000 investment mucked up their maths in their presentation and then made the flippant remark, "Well, we are women." I shouted at the telly, but there was no need, hurrah! Debra Eden gave them a Look of Death and one of the guys ripped them to pieces for it. HAPPY FEELINGS.

In other exciting news, I have cunningly worked out the reason my CD ROM drive was pretending there was no disc was that it was a teeny wee bit dirty in there. Cleaning kit arrived and it now recognises that there are discs, hurrah! Still v hit and miss over whether it will actually play the bloody things though.

Anyways, Mark of the Rani arrived yesterday, v exciting, OT3 Time Lord goodness, yes. Sadly, I shouldn't have listened to the commentary track for, woe, it was bad (I think CB era people are so defensive about their two years that they tend to take it a bit too seriously, which is saddening. ) Colin, oh Colin, why do you say sentences which hurt my love for you? WHY? "Pip and Jane write very good words." Oh. OH DEAR ME.

Some Words of Pip and Jane

• "A megabyte modem!"
  
• "The tree won't hurt you!"
  
• "I've had enough of this drivel." (or that line from Time and the Rani that some fans consider worryingly self-aware.)
  
• "There's nothing you can do to prevent the catharis of spurious morality!"*
  
• "Never mind the Sidney Carton heroics."
  
• "How utterly evil!"
  
• "Whoever's been dumped in there has been pulverised into fragments and sent floating into space, and in my book that's murder."

Also have put up some pics from the DVD in me Scrapbook here. (The other stuff in there is a couple of caps from City of Death and some Doctor/Romana wallpapers of various incarnations, which are all useable if ye wants or such.) There are some smashing Peri/Six pics which I have nae seen on the web and they are all decent quality, yes.


Ma favourite pic! Look at them! Aw!


* to be fair, I love that line, but not because it's good.

"Whoever's been dumped in there has been pulverised into fragments and sent floating into space, and in my book that's murder."

I have no idea about the context of this dialogue line, but I think it's actually a smashing quote. Was it intended to be humorous, though?

Aww, that is a cute Six/Peri pic. (I like Peri a lot better when I'm not hearing her godawful whiny American accent...)

In my book, that's no way to make an omelette.

Er...

SEE HOW THEY SHOULD HAVE HIRED ME TO WRITE FOR THEM???

"The tree won't hurt you!"

After seeing The Evil Dead, I think that sentence wins for reassurance alone, in any situation. Especially on TV.

Is he meant to have a Technicolour Dream Coat?

Six's era just seems to be a bit mad. The costumes, the script, the acting...

I do love it, though.

"A megabyte modem!"

Why do people have a problem with this line? Is it so hard to believe in the Whoniverse there's a company called Megabyte which makes modems that look like retro steampunk devices with flashing lights?

... Yeah, a bit. :)

The R1 release for Mark isn't until 7 November, so I'm grateful for the stills. I love the clingy-ness of Six/Peri.

I also love the beauty of Kate and the hawt evilness of Ainley!Master.

(I'm also wroking on One/Babs pr0n, and I thought you'd be interested.)
