If anyone is into the CSI series I discovered that BTR Direct are doing a buy 2 get 1 free offer on all of the titles in the CSI series so I bought the first 6 DVD’s in the CSI Miami series this morning saved 13.98 so far as I’ll probably go back and order the next 6 to get me up to season the end of season 6.
Was looking at how much HMV in MK was charging for the CSI Miami DVD’s they were all around £40 and Play.com although cheaper were all from Play-Traders which prompted the searching around and subsequent find of BTR Direct.
Only problem I have is I’ve now started watching CSI NY as well so might have to take advantage of the BTGOF offer to buy them.
Seems to get classy reviews - and I see C4 are showing the 4 part follow up to Shane Meddows This Is England from this Tuesday - same cast so should be good and just been to see
The Girl who played with Fire - No 2 in the movie trilogy - and very good it is as well - Naomi Rappace gets the most screen time as Salander which is great - although to be honest the first film was as good as the first book - this time around the book was better - but still miles better then the dross that was on around it…..
I must be missing LMP, I’m getting excited by the Women’s Rugby World Cup Final, England v New Zealand, wouldn’t mind scrumming down with some of these. And I always thought rugby was a game played by men with odd shaped balls.
Sherlock - missed this when it was on TV - and just been sent the first two episodes on disc - always been a fan of Mr Holmes since I was a kid and this is terrific stuff - the way they have updated everything - mobile phones,the internet ect but still require the leaps of logic - the writing is razor sharp with performances to match - and the way they sneak loads of in-jokes and references to keep the fan boys happy - I was almost cheering by the end - loads more of this please…...

LOL! I was thinking the same thing….
Sky Sports News Ladies are awesome… especially in HD now!
And… Annabel Croft… she is looking hot today in very hot NY!
Agree about Sherlock the third one is excellent. The Beeb have commissioned a second series, I thought that Martin Freeman & Benedict Cumberpatch worked really well together, Freeman’s Watson going through life as pleasantly perplexed, rather than the bufoon Watson has been portrayed as in the past.
That was always the problem I had with the Basil Rathbone movies - as almost all the Holmes stories are written from the viewpoint of Watson - and he would hardly cast himself as a none too bright old duffer - the best ever is of course the Jeremy Brett stuff but this new series could give them a run for their money…...

You’re right those SSN girls are really hot, and I’ve fancied Annabel Croft for ages.

I’ve always been a fan of the Holmes stories since being read A Speckled Band by our English teacher when I was about 11. Nigel Stock played Watson well opposite Peter Cushing in the 60’s. But I think Jeremy Brett is the definitive Holmes, and I thought Edward Hardwicke played Watson well.
