I was idly passing when I saw that
mysticheaven had this here meme. I didn't steal it or owt.
List Your Top Six Favorite Shows...
1] Red Dwarf
2] Joking Apart
3] The Brittas Empire
4] Cold Feet
5] The Young Ones
6] My Dad's the Prime Minister
I had enough trouble with the first task, there. Still, throw the questions at me!
1. Who is your favorite character from #2?
Joking Apart
Ooh, good one. Tracey, I think. She sure packs a good feisty slap, and she's got her husband in check, bless him.
2. Who is your least favorite character from #4?
Cold Feet
I must admit, I've never been as fond of Rachel or Karen as the others. All the blokes are likeable, and who doesn't like Jenny? But Rachel and Karen can be rather mardy and demanding.
3. What would a crossover between #1 and #5 include?
Red Dwarf/The Young Ones
Complete and utter chaos. Obviously, there first has to be a way in which the YOers find themselves on the 'Dwarf, probably through some time-space fabris rip under the stairs that Jerzei forgot to warn them about. And then you can just see the characters squaring up to one another as they try to figure out whether they love or hate their counterparts: Lister and Vyvyan, Rimmer and Rik, Neil and Kryten, Cat and Mike.
4. Who is your favorite ship from #6?
My Dad's The Prime Minister
Philips/Packer. It's a ship in my world, don't look at me like that. The PM and his spin doctor are quite obviously getting up to stuff at 10 Downing Street whilst everyone else's backs are turned. 'Briefings' indeed.
5. If you were to set one person from #3 and one person from #6 on a blind date, who would they be?
Brittas/My Dad's the Prime Minister
....Having said the above, I want to see how Duncan would get on with Carole.
6. If you could meet one person from #4 and spend the day with them, who would it be, and what would you do?
Cold Feet
Ye Gawds, that's, er, a hard one. Adam will be the most fun, so we'll go with him. No doubt a fair few drinks will be involved, but if his tour of Ireland is anything to go by, anything's fine by me.
7. If you could change one thing about #2's plotline, what would you change?
Joking Apart
Do you know, there's hardly anything other than what happens after the show (the last episode is rather odd). Mark and Becky surely have to get back together, becuase I still can't quite see what she saw in Trevor.
8. Explain a relationship between two people (not neccessarily romantic) from show #5, and why you like the relationship between them.
The Young Ones
Well, it's got to be Rik and Vyvyan, hasn't it? You've got your love/hate axis right there. And they're both obsessed with whose a virgin, which is dangerously asking for slash.
9. If the lead title characters (first name in the credits) from #1 and #3 were both drowning, and you could only save one, who would it be?
Red Dwarf and Brittas
.....That's kind of, Rimmer and Brittas, isn't it? Oh. That's a dilemma. I think essentially that Brittas is the nicer person because he never *means* to cause anyone any harm, only help them, whereas poor Rimsy is more of a bitter and cynical soul. Anyway, Rimmer's fairly used to death, wouldn't you say?
10. If you could change the title characters' order in the credits for #4, what order would you choose?
Cold Feet
Given that's mainly the six characters, it's fine. Except that it does kind of focus on David and Karen in the last two series, so maybe Robert Bathurst and Hermione Norris should be first up there. Actually.....I think they *are* already. Hey, I don't dwell on these things.
11. If you were able to add a new character, any kind of character you wanted, to the storyline for #6, what would the character be like and what would their role be?
My Dad's the Prime Minister
I think they needed some kind of Blunkett or Boris Johnson type for some SCANDALS.
12. What happens in your favorite episode of show #2?
Joking Apart
....But there's three favourites! Okay, in my choice for the moment, Mark is having a sniffle over Becky leaving him, and we're taken on a flashback journey to their first date. Which is the ulitmate farce date including rogue knickers, panic vacumn cleaning, the best thing ordered in a restaurant ever ("Oral sex!"), and HANDCUFFS.
13. If you could kill off one of the characters of #1, who would it be and how would you do it?
Red Dwarf
... I'm sorry, Kochanski2, I really am. I understand that my crush on Kochanski1 doesn't help. But you should have never entered our universe if you're going to WHINE.
14. If you got the chance to visit the set for either show #3 or show #5, which would you choose?
Brittas, The Young Ones
Ooh, blimey. I know someone who went to see Brittas and all and I am still *green*. But I'm sure either would have been ANARCHY [/Rik].
15. So, I saved the best q for last. If you could date anyone from any of these shows, which show and which person?
Oh, that's hard. I mean, these characters are a little bit messed up to say the least! Okay, the best of the bunch. Rimmer (RD) has his sweet side, but I 'm not sure he's perfect date material, Gavin's (TBE) batting for some other team, David Marsden (Cold Feet) would need to let his hair down a fair bit and Mike (TYO) would be class but probably a little slimy. I'm going to go with Mark Taylor (Joking Apart). A sense of humour gets me every time, and I could handle him unlike the other Becky. And, HANDCUFFS.
Finally:
mysticheaven, I forgot a show for Channel B.
....How Clean is Your Bobbeh?
Rubber ducks at the ready.
