Happy New Year! I come bearing goodies!

[e0wyn]

First of all, happy new year everyone!!!
And let's start it in style since I'm not here empty handed but I come bearing goodies :D


DOCTOR WHOish related things

• David Tennant's Nerdist Podcast (thanks to girlfmkitty for the heads up on twitter)

Yes! The 10th Doctor himself, David Tennant, in a sit down chat with Chris in a very posh English library! This is the full unedited audio from the segment on the Nerdist TV show (originally aired 12/24 on BBC America, probably available on iTunes now). Chris and David chat about Doctor Who, Harry Potter, The Incredible Hulk, and working shirtless. PLUS! MANY fan questions answered. He was nine kinds of awesome.

• Christopher Eccleston's new BBC movie "The Borrowers" (thanks to pat_san for the link)

The movie is perfect for the holiday season, it's so cute! It's based on Mary Norton's children's fantasy novel "The Borrowers" and it's about tiny people who live in people's homes and "borrow" things to survive while keeping their existence unknown.



SUITS

I've recently started catching up with the first season of Suits and I love it! Besides falling in love with all the characters, I couldn't get out of my head the wonderful and appropriately very 'suited' title song. It's by the Californian electronic-rock band Ima Robot and it's called Greenback boogie. You can download it from here.


Finally, I saw at ginevra17's journal a FUNNY 2011 FANDOM MEME and I thought to give it a go:

Your main fandom of the year? Definitely Russel T Davis' Doctor Who! And Supernatural of course, though I've been less active than usual.

Your favorite film watched this year? Black Swan & The king's speech

Your favorite book read this year? El cartógrafo by Juan Mayorga & A Game of Thrones by George R Martin

Your favorite album or song to listen to this year? Mumford & Sons' Sigh No More

Your favorite TV show of the year? Doctor Who & Game of Thrones

Your favorite LJ community of the year? ontd_spnparty
Your best new fandom discovery of the year? Doctor Who

Your biggest fandom disappointment of the year? Definitely Supernatural. Criminal Minds too.

Your fandom boyfriend/girlfriend of the year? David Tennant & Misha Collins / Stana Katic

Your biggest squee moment of the year? Castle saying 'I love you' to Beckett

The most missed of your old fandoms? Ally McBeal

The fandom/TV show you haven't tried yet, but want to? None right now... I've just finished catching up with Downton Abbey & Sherlock and I'm currently watching Suits and those are the ones I wanted to try as soon as I had the chance :) I'm not regretting it, each one of those shows is amazing in its own way! I might try Justified as per girlfmkitty's suggestion but over the summer.

Your biggest fan anticipations for the New Year? Game of Thrones S2 and episode #17 of Supernatural

I also promise I'll try to make some icons soonish, unfortunately I haven't had much free time lately and I also wasn't that inspired by Spn.

I'm gonna leave you with the pic of the cake I made for the party I went to last night, it's the "Bûche de Noël" (Yule log), a traditional dessert made in the Francophone countries around this time of year. I'm not francophone but the French prof gave us the recipe to us back in my high school days and I've been making it ever since =D



HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
