Yikes. That's awful. Sorry to hear about that, Santa.

[Santa]

On the plus side, my DVD man delivered today The Dark Knight and series 4 of Dallas. I still have my cinema sweets so I'll be up late this evening commiserating with myself. But it won't be the same.

[Ravenstone]

How awful. Poor Santa

Hang on - they're doing DVD sets - of Dallas???

What's next? Corrie? Flying Doctors??

[Santa]

Oh yes. Been doing them for ages. Dynasty too.

[ImTheMoneypenny]

Sorry Santa! I hope they get it fixed soon for you!! There was a couple times early in the movie, the colour blipped in purple the first time I saw QOS, thank goodness it didn't do that again though. At least you have sweets and Dallas! I feel so old I watched that when they didn't know who shot JR, and now I can't remember who actually did it! Ah how the mind goes. Watched Dynasty too.

And here's a show I loved no one ever talks about Finder of Lost Loves. . . Well, I've had too many Agent Strawberry Fields Daiquiris tend I ramble when I'm like this. . . Anyway hang in there Santa!!

[Ravenstone]

Dynasty .... Michael Praed in the shower......mmmmmmm

Excuse me, I'll be in the corner with my Laphroaig and wearing a far away expression.

Oh, great; now you've put the image of Patrick Duffy in the shower in my head for the rest of the night...

[Ravenstone]

No, no, no...not Patric Duffy! *reaches for brain bleach*

Prince Michael of Moldavia. He definitely had a shower scene. I had pictures of it up on my wall (no, I'm not embarrassed about that in the slightest!)

[plankattack]

I don't have anything to say. I just wanted to get a drink and relax in the corner. Every other thread I go to has devolved into personal attack. (maybe it's me).

Will drop by Dodge's place later. It's civilised too. Unfortunately civility seems out the window at the moment (at least at the "Other directors" thread)

Barman. Yes, whatever everyone else is having, and their next is on me.

You are a gentleman and a scholar. Mine's a Laphroaig

I'd like to state for the record that I don't have any Dynasty DVDs, I just know they're available. I only have Dallas. Michael Praed never did it for me, but Dex Dexter was rather masculine, in a good way.

[Ravenstone]

Santa - I hate to break it to you, but Dallas isn't any better, street-cred-wise, than Dynasty

I don't have any Dynasty DVDs either. But I do have Robin of Sherwood both series (well, both the series that matter I don't have no truck with the Jason Connery one)

[Santa]

Santa - I hate to break it to you, but Dallas isn't any better, street-cred-wise, than Dynasty

Street-cred-wise no, but it's far more intellectual.

[Ravenstone]

I'll bow to your superior knowledge on the matter

There is no solace for me tonight. None. Went to go and see QoS, stocked up on sweeties and ice-cream. The audio on the English version was buggered - we saw the PTS and halfway through the titles and then it failed and refused to come back to life. So I ran into screen 6 for the Spanish dubbed version, but by the end of the Mr White section I was fed up with seeing their lips move at a different time to the words. I HATE dubbed films with a passion. So I ran out, nearly in tears with disappointment. It was like when you have a huge crush on someone for about 2 years, and then when he finally kisses you, he has a tongue like my dog. I explained this to the cinema staff and they just looked at me as if I were a bit mental. They reckon they'll have a good copy in a few days. There are no words.

Pardon my childlike innocence, you W(ild) O(lder) W(oman), but...Would it be like a dog's tongue because it's pink, thick and disgusting or...because it's been deeply where tongues shouldn't go?

Sometimes it's both. And I'm not older.

You said you were 93. You mean I've had my hopes up for nothing?

Anyway, I'm sorry about your viewing tragedy. May the spirit of this thread make the viewing worth your while.

I'm banging the Bond theme out on the lounge door, Zorin. Let me in! It's getting brutal out there.

Is there an age problem? I'm asking, because I'm not an adult.
If there isn't, please count me in!

I am an adult, but don't act like it much of the time!
If that's okay, count me in as well.

[draxingtonstanley]

Hmm it's quiet in here tonight. Miss Flex! How delightful to see you. What do you say to taking a walk in the orchard?

You would? Splendid!

[Ravenstone]

Blows the dust off a bottle of Laphroaigh. Locates clean tumbler behind the bar. Perches on bar stool and proceeds to work way through the whisky

I say, I wonder if the karaoke machine is still switched on?

[Skudor]

I guess this is the place to have an nice dry martini and watch Quantum of Solace in peace from trolls and goblins.

[Zorin Industries]

Make mine a Babycham...

[Automan]

I've been on the Blackthorn

They're still at it? And here I was hoping the hyperbolic, teabagger arguments would have died down by now.

[Skudor]

The peace, the blissful peace!

[jaguar007]

Let the naysayers find another way to die

[Skudor]

Ooops, I think I've ruined that DVD of Die Another Day I was using as a coaster. Well, I guess non-one here will mind.

[Guy Haines]

Well, you would expect someone with connections in 10 Downing Street to be a member of an exclusive club. I'm busy at the moment hedging my bets on which Prime Minister I will be advising next (the voters aren't making this easy by suggesting a messy three way contest on 6th May).

But, while I do like argument, I don't like making it personal. Sign me up, anyway!
