I don't know what's going to end this current bout of insomnia for me. Yesterday morning I got up early and went to the gym; after that I met my sister for lunch in Greenwich and we went for a walk in Greenwich Park (which is very hilly, so lots of walking uphill - we even went to the Observatory) afterwards, so my legs were well and truly tired ( Read more... )

Now, I wouldn't want to suggest that British theatre ushers are in some way better at their job than their American counterparts. Their job which sometimes includes making sure the audience don't take photos of the production. I will simply say that Dan Radcliffe starred in Equus in the West End for nearly five months, and nary a glimpse of frontal ( Read more... )

Now, I've been ultra-subtle about this so it may have gone unnoticed, but I quite like photos of attractive young men. If they're in a state of undress that's a bonus. But you know what's really sexy? When they're posing in an "ooh look, you can see almost everything but I'm covering up the important stuff" way - only they're not doing as good a ( Read more... )

Daniel Radcliffe played Alan Strang in Equus for months. Lots of people wanted a full-frontal nude photo to surface. It didn't. Alfie Allen's been in the role for all of five minutes. Not that many people are interested in his genitals. But here they are anyway.

Last week I mentioned the new ITV1 drama The Palace, which is a Footballers' Wives style soap about a fictional British Royal family. Sadly the makers still haven't cottoned on that they're making fluff and should be getting the cast to strip off every five minutes, and the best we got was King Richard's bare shoulders as he sat up in bed. Really ( Read more... )

This is turning into a bit of a meh week; it's my second 6-day week at work in a row, and it's definitely dragging more than I'd like. All day at the office I'm just desperate for 5pm to come around so I can come home, and when I'm back here (except on Monday when I went bowling) I'm just bored. The November Surprises which started the month have ( Read more... )

So the first two days of November each came with an exciting bit of news provided by "the Internet." Would the rest of the month follow suit? It didn't look like it yesterday, until the very last minute. Literally - I clicked on the page at one minute to midnight. It's not quite as momentous as the last two, but we can safely say it put a smile on ( Read more... )
