It's just a jump to the left...

I am a little bit not-quite-well and a lot tired so I was going to go straight to bed after liveblogging Jonathan Ross, then I remembered that taurenova had told me to watch clips of Chris Fountain (aka Justin off of Hollyoaks) on Dancing on Ice. So I did. And OH MY GOD that boy is amaaaaazing. My not so secret love for him is back in full force. Fuller ( Read more... )

That Time Warp was completely amazing it's true!

I'm too terrified to get attached to anyone on DoI after John... I remember watching that show so vividly with you and my head felt like it was going to explode from a headache.

But oh it's tempting!

I know! You may have seen on Jen's LJ that we're having Barrowman-flashbacks. I'm going to vote for Chris in the hope it won't happen to him.

I wonder if Barrowman's still bitter? I love that he would find a way to bring it up in EVERY interview for about a year, lol.

Good plan!

He was on the radio the other day and mentioned it but he didn't sound quite so bitter, not that he ever sounded bitter exactly but you could tell he wasn't thrilled. IDK

Seriously, Sarah, it's totally worth it! He's just *flappy McKay hands* I have no words. Honestly.

I've fallen in love with a Hollyoaks actor. How embarrassment.

*g*

See how uptodate I am!

Mind you. I've just been watching Gene Kelly tapdance on rollerskates so it's going to take a lot to impress me!

Cry Me a River was pretty impressive. But I will concur that it's hard to be impressed by anything after watching Gene Kelly.

Unless it's Donald O'Connor, natch. *maintains belief that O'Connor was the better dancer*

Oh he was the better dancer! Or easily as good anyway I suppose it's ahrd to compare them exactly but when you watch him in Singing in the Rain I love Gene but it's Donald who blows me away when you really register what he's doing!

On the otherhand I'm now watching Gene dance with Mr Fred Astaire... now Ginger Rogers, she was a dancer!

They truly don't make 'em like they used to. The whole bunch of them back then were just stunning.

Make 'Em Laugh is truly one of my favourite film scenes ever. One: it's utterly hilarious and perfectly timed and Two: he does what I refer to, after years of Jackie Chan films, as 'the running up the wall trick'.

So I've got dsitracted from Gene and gone off looking for Donald...

But you're right about that scene, every moment of it is just right and the running up the wall trick especially (which is almost my favourite moment of The Full Monty too) and Make 'em Laugh! I'm always half convinced the lovestory in that film is between the guys which is unsurprising I suppose. It's a threesome at the very least!

:D

I love Singin' in the Rain. I really don't know why I don't own it on DVD. *slaps wrist* I must rememdy that in my next Amazon package.

Re: Real Love Story - Moses Supposes etc is classic proof, in that case. *doesn't do the whole tongue twister though she can if called upon it*

The funnerest threesome ever, clearly. ;)

I know that, if I manage to become the kind of author that doesn't get up until the afternoon and faffs about until evening (I write better at night) I will totally end up watching Hollyoaks.

It's all I can do to stop myself from setting it up on my DVR.

See - it's the opposite in my house in a way. This is the only one of 'those' shows that my Mum will watch (though she watched Maria, because of my sister, and then put up with Joseph because of my obsession with t'Barrowman) and we'll never miss it because of that.

I keep seeing Mitchell&Webb interviews at the moment and I kind of want their life because they get up alte and watch daytime TV and then write a bit in David's bedroom...

Hollyoaks has had it's moments1 I used to watch it when it started and I watched the gay storyline mostly.

Gods - it's a life I look forward to. (Like the joke in my copy of Good Omens about the book being written in the few hours that Pratchett and Neil were awake at the same time)

I saw a whole omnibus of the Craig&JP storyline when I was in Oxford last year. Mostly I laughed because it's quite an awful show and the guy who played Craig was terrible.

It was when it all came out at the engagement party. Or something.
