In-de-structable.. Cap-tain Hark-ness (kettle drum rif)...
Some thoughts on Torchwood and Russell T... (turn away if you're easily offended)
Put John Barrowman in a red uniform, give him a Cary Grant-style accent and it could have been that indestructible and indispensable member of Spectrum. Come to think of it, Spectrum's job was to deal with

Well, I just LOVED "Torchwood" and will forgive Russell T Davies almost anything so long as he comes up with stuff like this ...it was dark, sexy, funny, and exciting, even though it was only a scene/character setting up scenario...
Captain Jack : "He came and went...." ...ROFL - That certainly got me going...Excellent stuff !!!
Having said that, I do know what you mean though...I had the same little "WTF ??? " moment when he recovered as if by magic, so quickly, from a shot through the forehead...Perhaps Russ will find that that little plot get-out clause will become a big albatross around his neck around about series three...
John Barrowman is everything that David Tennant's Doctor desperately wants to be, but can't, because of the viewing demographic...gotta keep it clean for the kiddies!!...
BTW, I will be sending you an e-mail about Friday at some point this week, but at the mo', we are going to Bali-Bali for a very late lunch after the film, because Honey really likes Thai food, and so I thought we'd show her some Brit-Thai food and see how it differs, if any, from the Californian stuff...
If however, there is another place which you are hankering to try, then please tell...

That was funny, but, alas, not a Russell T original. That joke was doing the rounds when I was a teenager:
'Why is semen white and urine yellow? So a man can tell whether he's coming or going.'
(The original was 'Irishman', but those jokes have their origin in the English oppression of the Celts, and the Irish don't appreciate them, despite what people think. Much funnier as an anti-man joke anyway.)

Hmmm, lunch on Friday...probably at our old favourite Bali-Bali...Janet ( Brummie ) hasn't been there, I don't think, and neither has Pamela (Honeyelf )...and Julie really liked it anyway...
By the way, like a fool, I totally forgot to wish you a very Happy Birthday...I do hope you had a FAB day !!!
