A blast from the past
I've just spent the day helping a friend make wedding decorations. I'm feeling warm and fuzzy and arts and crafty. Actually it was a nice way to spend my Saturday, I ended up having a bit of a stressful week (deadlines - pffft) so came home last night, slumped on the sofa, fired up the magic 'things I've recorded' box and refused to move. One of the gems I recorded was a real blast from my past, Red Shoe Diaries - a histrionic overwrought genius film that spawned a dodgy soft-core porn TV series. Back in the day a friend and I had a bit of a thing for David Duchovny and genuinely thought this film was the height of brilliance. Cheesy? Yes. Dated? Yes. But I still loved the guilty pleasure stroll down memory lane.
Much more recently Doctor Who Vs Pirates (or if you want to be pedantic 'The Curse of the Black Spot') was disappointing, although Lily Cole is gorgeous as glowy siren/mermaid.
There's always at least one bum note DW per series, but I'm annoyed it was this one - sirens have so much potential (not to mention the reveal was actually quite fix-ity interesting). M'eh!
Plus Amy as kick-ass pirate frockcoat wearing "doxy" ♥
