how fucking brilliant is it, srsly! omg i am so upset i have no way to watch my dvds of it here. i love cassie! she's so vague and hilarious!

[aquandrian]

Totally!

Ha, she's amazing but I gotta admit I feel for the poor girl. She doesn't irritate me nearly as much as she could. That second episode from her POV was so fascinating. And I just finished the Russian episode so I'm hanging out to see her again.

Hey, Nat. Totally shameless query so apologies in advance but have you by any chance managed to get your hands on a copy of the new Dandys album, by whatver means? Cos I'm trying to figure out whether it's worth buying ...

Thoughts?

[heythatscool]

actually, no! i could have, but i kind of didn't bother? the only song i've heard off it didn't really grab me, so i was like "eh, won't bother searching", but now that you've mentioned it, i actually think i might have to look into it! (okay, i just found it on soulseek, and one of the songs is called "the legend of the last of the outlaw truckers aka the ballad of sheriff shorty", now i HAVE to hear it.)

(lol i can upload it for you once it finishes downloading?)

May I ask what it is about?

[aquandrian]

Kids getting pissed, kids getting laid, kids getting high, kids getting abandoned, kids getting used, kids of a 16/17 year old persuasion in the UK present day. The first series is out on DVD here, not sure about the second.

Fucking brilliance!

[sodomis]

OK. I'm persuaded *g*

Already started downloading it, cause i just adore troubled teens - i don't know why though, since the whole teenage angst thing seems to provoke in me an equal amount of irritation. Oh, maybe that's why.

I believe it's going to be enlightening.And the boy who was in About a Boy has grown to be...ahem, really yummy.

Btw, nin have released new album which is on their site for free download, if ur interested.I juts found out.

[aquandrian]

Ha, awesome! Yes, I said exactly the same thing about Nicholas Heult. Just wait a few episodes and then see if you think he's equally as yummy. *cryptic*

I just finished the first series so yep, can confirm definite enlightenment. Oh boy.

And hee, I just saw the NIN album in store in a special CD/DVD pack ... so totally has my name on it.
