Should I be worried if over the last 2 months I've managed to watch the entire series of Press Gang 4-5 times over?
As a complete package It's just so amazingly brilliant. At times I find it hard to believe that it was made over 15-20 years ago. Steven Moffat is most definately a God. Check this one out if you possibly can (and haven't already). :D
Also on the subject of Children's shows has anyone else ever watched that program Channel 9 has in the afternoon sometimes called The Shak? I also might be a little in love with that show as well. Both the concept and the stories they do are pretty lame but the main guy (named Curio because he loves science) is just so geeky it's hard not to love him. He has a Einstein action figure for cripes sake. :P
I think the moment it caught my attentio was an episode where they were talking about things that shake and decided to make some milkshakes. Curio thought this was a brilliant idea because he could then use them to explain the complexities of in-land oil drilling. I couldn't tell you how much that made me laugh (any one who's seen There Will Be Blood will know what I'm talking about) especially when later, milkshake in hand, his explaination consisted of quoting the "Now if you had a milkshake and I had a milkshake..." bit, thick Southern accent and all, to the bemused looks of the others. Maybe that's just me though. *g*
P.S. Buy this. You won't be sorry.
P.P.S. Any Doctor Who fans in Australia might want to check this out. If I had the spare cash I'd almost certainly be going myself.
