So I finally got around to buying The Eagle on DVD a couple of weeks ago; then the Soul Sib and I watched it and without prompting he started giggling over how gay it was. I am so proud of him. All those years of forcing Alexander/Hephaistion on him have finally paid off. *Proud tears*

In terms of links, misspamela sums up how gay the film is very well. I ( Read more... )

BBC's 'Ancient Worlds' you lied to me. Last night I settled down for what promised to be an hour long programme on Alexander the Great and within twenty minutes you had gone through his entire history (badly, I might add) and moved on to his successors. His successors are not him. This is easily recognisable by the fact that the period after ( Read more... )

So last week I was whining that I wanted TV recs, and you were all wonderful enough to provide me with suggestions. So, in return I figured it was only fair I rec'd some things which have made me happy this week.

The Navy Lark - I was sort of brought up on this so I'm biased, but it's a radio programme that's being re-run by BBC Radio 7 and I just ( Read more... )

Miscellaneous post of bits and pieces:

I have two things to apologise for: Firstly, Moonstone was meant to be up by now, but real life has again taking one of its (apparently frequent) turns for the worse. I won't bore you with the details - suffice to say I'm just a bit busy at the moment, so Moonstone is still being done, it's just taking longer than anticipated ( Read more... )

Shameless use of a different icon for the moment, whilst I gaze in adoration at Tennant. Ahem.

( Some pondering on Doctor Who, Torchwood and fandom things. Oh. May contain some (very) minor spoilers. )

"What if I'm just some guy you can't have? And then next week you'll be on to your next conquest ( Read more... )

Oh god, this was gorgeous.

'Christian (Wes Ramsey), a 20-something West Hollywood party boy gets more than he bargains for when he tries to seduce 19-year-old Elder Aaron Davis (Steve Sandvoss), a sexually confused Mormon missionary who moves into his apartment complex. When Christian exposes Davis' secret sexual desire, Davis rejects Christian ( Read more... )

NBC's Heroes has eaten my brain. Big time. They've just started showing it over here in the UK (well, we're mid-S1 now...) and it's bloody addictive. Must...stop... watching....

More Thorn and Rhyses up soon, I think, because Thorn is not leaving me alone.
